The PEANUT Preequilibrium-Intranuclear
Cascade code is described in some detail, in particular the pion potential,
and several effects ignored by most Intranuclear cascade codes
(formation zone,nucleon antisymmetrization, nucleon-nucleon hard-core correlations,
coherence length after elastic or charge exchange
hadron-nucleon scattering). Several benchmarks are presented. Other aspects
of FLUKA important for shielding design of intermediate-energy accelerators
(in particular biasing) are described.

FLUKA improvements in the period
1993-1995 concern: the multiple scattering algorithm (now enriched by a
single-scattering algorithm at boundary crossing); the treatment
of energy loss (improved ionization potential, handling of porous
substances, ranging out particles below energy cutoff); PEANUT (preequilibrium model
extended to 1.5 GeV, separate proton and neutron nuclear densities, shell
model densities for light nuclei, anisotropy in the angular distribution
of pion absorption, isobar model for pion production); fission; Fermi break-up
for light nuclei; prediction of residual nuclei; Dual Parton Model generator (introduction
of single chains, new chain building, new chain hadronization, 3 different
kinds of diffractive events, transverse momentum selection both
for chain ends and for individual partons, smeared mass distribution for
resonances).
