RE: [fluka-discuss]: muon production frm gamma conversion or positron annhilation

You don't get any muons because the cross section for muon pair production is very small (about 1.E4 times smaller than that for e+e- production). You need to bias the production by a factor of that order.
Set WHAT(2) = 1.E-4 in the PHOTONUC card with SDUM=MUMUPAIR.

Dear User,
Can you please send us your entire input? So we can check it and in case
run it..
Regards,
Andrea
