Dear Alfredo,
       Thanks for your quick reply.

       Q: could you please explain a bit better what do you mean by "%"?
Is it the fraction of K+ at the end of your setup for an incoming beam of
K0, K0L, K0s or what?
       A: The yield rate(%) is defined by
 
                            N_K+
          K+ Yield(%) = -------- × 100(%)
                            N_Tot

          N_K+ : event numbers of K+ produced by the inelastic process;
          N_Tot: total event numbers simulated.
          Eg : I simulate total 10000 events of K0, I find that there are
          3516 events will produce K+ by inelastic interaction during K0
          propagate through the high density material. Then,
               K+ yield rate = 3516/10000 * 100%= 35.16%

          How to count the N_K+, the code is in the ENTRY USDRAW of mgdraw.f
          as attachment. Here I also show them below:
          * ------------------------ Kaon+ count
          NKAONP = 0
          OPEN(UNIT = 80, FILE = "usdraw.dat", ACCESS = 'APPEND')
          DO 1000 ip = 1, NP
          IF (ICODE.EQ.101 .AND. KPART(ip).EQ.15) THEN
            NKAONP = NKAONP + 1
            WRITE (80,*) NCASE, NKAONP
          END IF
          1000 CONTINUE
          *-----------------------------------------

      PS: I also print out the track infos trying to understand the difference,
          1. In fluka, the interaction process like followed:
             K0 : K0 will scattering off the nucleus by elastic or inelastic, or decay.
             No K0L or K0S shown up.
             K0L: One condition is that K0L will be transformed into K0(K0bar) by elastic
             process, then K0(K0bar) will go through by elastic, inelastic and decay.
             The other condition is that K0L will directly scattering with the nucleus by
             elastic or inelastic, or decay.
             K0S: Just like K0L.

          2. In Geant4, the interaction process like followed:
             K0 : It will be directly transformed into K0L or K0S by 50% probability,
             then K0L or K0S will transport through the materail by elastic or inelastic or decay.
             No K0(K0bar) shown up.
             K0L: It will transport the material by elastic, inelastic process and decay,
             No K0(K0bar) shown up.
             K0S: Just like K0L.

          3. For Geant4, it is clear that the K+ yield rate from K0 is equal to the half
             of the summation yield rate from K0L and K0S, just as shown in the attached JPG file.
             For FLUKA, why the K+ yield rate is not simply equal to the half of the summation
             yield rate from K0L and K0S ?
 
              
          Looking forward to your suggestions.
          Thanks very much.
      

Best wishes,
Hang
