[fluka-discuss]: Angular binning with USRBDX/USRYIELD

Grad student here - I think I've got a pretty good handle on using USRBDX
to find an energy spectrum, but now I'd like to plot an angular spectrum -
essentially, multiple angular bins, with one energy bin. I tried doing
that with USRBDX, but it didn't give me any data. How can I plot USRBDX
data with angle on the x-axis with multiple angular bins?

It looks like this is easier to do with USRYIELD - I can just swap the
places of energy and angle in quantities 1 and 2, and just score from 0 to
pi. However, I've also noticed that in order to match up x-axis energy
data from USRYIELD to USRBDX data, I need to multiply it by the solid
angle covered (I'm looking for particle count per primary, rather than
current per primary, so I leave the "area" field on USRBDX blank). So I'm
wondering, what would the normalization factor be if I plot USRYIELD data
with angle on the x-axis? Would I still multiply by the solid angle
covered, or would it be by the energy covered instead? I ask because
since I don't yet know how to plot vs. angle in USRBDX, I have nothing
really to compare the results to.

Thanks in advance.
