Dear community,
right now I'm working on my thesis, using flair for FLUKA but beeing a
beginner. I have to do a simulation of the inhomogenous activation in a
medical linear accelerator.
I already implemented all needed components. But I still have some problems:
1) Electrons, getting accelerated to high energies, are deflected by 270
degrees. The deflection occurs by magnets. How can I implement the
deflection - in three parts à 90 degrees - in FLUKA (I'm thinking about
MGNFIELD or EMF but beeing not sure)?
A constant magnetic field can be implemented using the MGNFIELD card.
For dipoles bending in a single plane, this would be sufficient.
For additional info, please refer to the manual and to these slides<
https://indico.cern.ch/event/489973/contributions/2000443/attachments/1270914/1883264/10_AdvancedMagneticField2016.pdf> from the FLUKA course.
2)After that, the electrons are directed at a target. Colliding, high
energy x-rays were produced. Is it possible to make this change from
electrons to x-rays in FLUKA? If so, how?
FLUKA takes care of x-rays production, provided that correct settings are issued.
EMFLUO is the card to activate. For some default, like PRECISIOn, x-rays are automatically activated.
As a final recommendation, please check/set the electron/photon thresholds using EMFCUT.
Thx for your help!
Greetings,
Andrea
