Dear FLUKA Experts,
We're simulating the neutron flux that arises when a 10GeV electron beam
strikes a Tungsten target.
The target geometry and requested energy binning (USRBDX) is shown in the
attached .inp file.
We are looking at both the raw (Neutrons_tab.lis) and 1-MeV equivalent
(1MeVNeut_tab.lis) neutron fluxes. For the output we believe we are
requesting 20 energy bins between the beam energy and 1 KeV and we are
having trouble interpreting the results.
In the 1 MeV equivalent output the requested course binning overlaps with
the fine low energy neutron groups output. Expressed in
flux/cmq/primary/GeV, the output seems to differ between the coarse and
fine binning.
Although our binning requests in the input file for raw neutrons and 1 MeV
equivalent neutrons are identical, for the raw neutron binning there is no
overlap in the coarse and fine energy range. Again, though, expressed in
flux/cmq/primary/GeV there appears to be a discontinuity at the high-energy
low-energy boundary of 20 MeV.
We are perplexed by this behavior, and wonder if there is a problem in our
input card or our interpretation of the output files. Any hints that you
can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Benjamin Smithers
