Dear Karol,
I have tested your sourcetest.f routine and I was able to reproduce
your results regarding the initial position sampling (looking at
the screenshots) and also the generated spectrum seems to follow well
the spectrum.dat file. Also regarding the angular distribution your
algorithm
seems to work well and reproduces a isotropic source on the +z half sphere.
So your source.f routine is ok in my opinion.
Regarding the normalization, since in your source you sample one photon
per time, the result is normalized per photon: therefore you should
multiply by the surface and by your fluence rate.
However I do not understand your units particle/cm^3/s: why cm^3,
shouldn't be cm^2? In this case the normalization that you suggest
is correct.
I hope this helps and I look forward to your reply.
Kind regards,
Andrea
