Dear,Anton Lechner!
Yes, I am interested in the rad decay of the created 180Ta.

I add RADDEACAY and LAM-BIAS card.
Many thanks to you for your help!

I'm very happy with this club. You help, you answer even despite the
weekend! Many thanks!

Hello,

Even with higher electron/photon cuts, the CPU time would be rather
long. You should use instead the LAM-BIAS card to reduce strongly the
interaction length of photo-nuclear interactions in Tantalum.
Considering the thickness of your Tantalum layer (100 um) and the
cross-section for 181Ta(gamma,n) below 10 MeV, I would use a reduction
factor of around 1E-5 on WHAT(2) of the LAM-BIAS card. I gave it a try
with your input file, and it works fine (i.e. you can get a nice neutron
spectrum with a reasonable CPU time).

   Hello everybody!


   I would like to know is it possible to reduce the calculation time of
the number of primary histories to be simulated in the run?

I have electron beam with energy 10MeV and interested in the following
reaction: 181Ta(gamma,n)180Ta,reaction threshold is about 8.5MeV. So,
the electron's energy is low and I need in may be 10^9-10^10 number of
primary histories, but it takes a lot of CPU time. Of course, I know
that I can use EMF-CUT and it will be reduce the time of calculations,
but I notice that it cut the energy spectrum of gamma irradiation from
180Ta and I would like to see the full spectrum.



   Thank you very much!!!
