Dear FLUKA users and authors
Can someone provide me with a bit more information about the mandatory need of WHAT(1) of the BEAM card (in case I sample my primary particles via a source.f routine). The manual says:
(command BEAM<
http://www.fluka.org/fluka.php?id=man_onl&sub=12> not requested): not allowed! The WHAT(1) value of the
BEAM<
http://www.fluka.org/fluka.php?id=man_onl&sub=12> command is imperatively required, in order to set up the
maximum energy of cross-section tabulations.
What kind of cross sections are tabulated and how does it refer to the energy/momentum set in WHAT(1)?
Is it a problem for the accuracy of the run when setting the WHAT(1) to 100 TeV and sampling primary particles only in the GeV range? I would be grateful if you could give me some indications if the granularity of the cross-section tabulation is a function of the WHAT(1) parameter or if a higher WHAT(1) value just increases the number of cross sections tabulated for the run.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Helmut
