Hello Vittorio,
Thank you to trying to answer my question. Well, for neutron with energies below 20 MeV, cross-section libraries are used. These cross-sections can be seen by using the command LOW-NEUT. Have you any idea about how compute the activation cross-section thanks to the data given by LOW-NEUT?
Best,

Dear Jonathan,
What do you exactly mean with "data used by Fluka, I'm not sure if I'm mislead by the name but I had some memories that those could be the probabilities of emission of a neutron and a proton (Pnp) and the one for the emission of a neutron and an alpha (Pna).

best, V.

I'm using the data used by Fluka for the low neutron and I found among the cross section and different probabilities two probabilities: PNP and PNA. I do not see what it is, so what is their meaning? Moreover, does anyone know how from these data to determine the activation cross section?
Sincerely,
Jonathan Derrien
