Dear Hajar Elhajji,

I have modified your input to make it run - one modification is the
LOW-PWXS-card which has been mentioned by Paola Sala.

I have also added some PHYSICS-cards which are more or less what we used
for the publications in

  J Konheiser et al 2016 J. Radiol. Prot. 36 819
  J Konheiser et al 2019 J. Radiol. Prot. 39 906

(where we still used the groupwise neutron cross sections and had to
substitute the ones for O18 with O16, meanwhile we have redone the
calculations with pointwise cross sections, and see little difference,
publication is currently under review).

I have aded a USRBIN scorer for proton fluence (it turned out that your
beam went in the wrong direction) and some biasing.

It depends what you want to score, if you want to score F18 production,
you might want to add an irradiation profile using a IRRPROFI card (with
additional DCYSCORE cards for the RESNUCLE-scorer, see the lecture on
activation e.g. in

https://indico.cern.ch/event/753612/contributions/3121524/attachments/1974728/3286244/Activation_2019.pdf

).

Cheers,

         Stefan
