[fluka-discuss]: Cross section of neutrons

Hi all,

I have simulated a pixel detector (just a silicon sensor layer) in FLUKA
and bombarding it with point neutron source at different energies from
1-25.5MHz with a step size of 0.5MHz. I run a single simulation.

I then score the energy deposited in the detector (one value for one run)
and then plot a graph of the energy deposited on the x-axis the source
energy on the y-axis shown below:

The energy seems to increase till 20MeV but then start fluctuating from
20.5 to 25.5MeV and also a spike at 17MeV

Am I missing some cards in my input file (attached) for activating some
feature for neutron energies after 20MeV?

Please help.

Cheers,
Shri
