Re: [fluka-discuss]: The inconsistency between EMFCUT setting and XX001.out file

Hallo

the reason is in your EMFCUT card which is asking to apply the thresholds
FROM region "left" TO region "VOID" (see the manual). Since you define the
region "left" AFTER the region "VOID", actually no region is included in
your statement and your EMFCUT card turns out to be ineffective.
(Keep in mind that the region number is given according to the order you
adopted in the region definition inside your input file).

Kind regards

Francesco
