Dear Andrea,
I found a way how to reproduce more than 3 monochromatic photons. It looks
strange and I'm not sure it's correct but I have spectrum of more than 3
lines. I've done it with help of the WVLNSH routine. Also I have strange
values in USRTRACK on Y axis but it's not scary. Output file gives me
normal number of the created photons. Could you comment this method?I've
attached my inp file and WVLNSH routine.
Best regards,
Viktor
