Dear Francesco and all the expertise, Thanks for your replies. I ran the simulation with 50 cores to improve the statistics. I set the 1keV as the threshold foe almost all the area (Target and void). I see zero erro and Zero dose Equivalent on the other side of the target (opposite side of source) ?!? If switching to single scattering (MULSOPT card) causes this Zeros? The plots and inp files are attached Best regards, Masoomeh ________________________________________ From: Francesco Cerutti Sent: 23 February 2017 13:46 To: Masoomeh Yarmohammadi Satri Cc: Giorgi Kharashvili; FLUKA Discussion List Subject: RE: [fluka-discuss]: Minimium in EMFCUT you have to specify the regions where the threshold applies, i.e. TARGET as WHAT(4) in your case If you look into the output file (NewDesignV5-1001.out), you will see that your 1 keV threshold has not been taken due to the wrong command F ************************************************** Francesco Cerutti CERN-EN/STI CH-1211 Geneva 23 Switzerland tel. ++41 22 7678962 fax ++41 22 7668854 On Thu, 23 Feb 2017, Masoomeh Yarmohammadi Satri wrote: > Dear Fracesco and Giorgi, > > Many thanks for the emails.
