12.2.4} Input Example no. 2: Only Scintillation light is concerned

 Here it is necessary to point out that, at present, FLUKA can generate
 scintillation lines only for monochromatic lines. A maximum number of 3
 different lines is possible. The value inserted here (128 nm) is the correct one
 for Liquid Argon. The fraction of deposited energy going into scintillation light
 depends on the degree of recombination after ionisation.

 Again, the value used here is a parameter justified in the framework of the Icarus
 collaboration, where about 20000 photons/MeV of deposited energy have been
 measured for the electric field of 500 V/cm (the field used in
 Icarus). A different electric field intensity will change the degree of
 recombination and therefore the light yield.
