         COPYRIGHT NOTICE AND LICENSE CONDITIONS

FLUKA  is  a  fully integrated  particle  physics Monte Carlo
code.  The  FLUKA  software results  in  particular from work
performed by Alberto Fasso`, Alfredo Ferrari, Johannes Ranft,
Paola Sala  (the "FLUKA Authors"),   and  collaborators  (the
"Collaborators").

The copyright  in  the  FLUKA  software Version 2021.2.7  and
following is vested as following:

Copyright in developments  carried  out after  June 30th 2022

DEFINITIONS

The FLUKA  software  ("FLUKA")  means  the  fully  integrated
particle  physics  Monte Carlo  simulation  software  package
being  developed  since  1989  by the Authors  and available,
under the  name  "FLUKA",  from  http://www.fluka.org  and/or
mirror sites authorised by the Authors.
FLUKA includes FLUKA core code, and  FLUKA  User Routines (as
defined below).

FLUKA User Routines means the set of subroutines collected in
the usermvax  section  of  FLUKA  and  forming  part  of  the
standard distribution of FLUKA.

The Licensee  means  any  person acting individually within a
non-profit organisation, exercising any permission granted by
this license.

LICENSE GRANT

1.
Subject to the  terms  and  conditions  of this license,  the
FLUKA  Copyright  Holders  herewith  grant to the  Licensee a
worldwide,  non-exclusive,  royalty-free,  source  and object
code  license  to  use  and  reproduce   FLUKA  for  internal
scientific non commercial non-military purposes only. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Licensee shall not execute
FLUKA in a manner that produces an output whose contents  are
directly useable or easily employable to simulate the physics
models embedded within FLUKA in a generic manner,  or  excise
portions of  FLUKA source or object code,  and  execute  them
independently of FLUKA.  Extracting specific isolated results
from any of the individual internal  physics  models embedded
within FLUKA is not permitted. Permitted use and reproduction
are referred to below as "Use".

2.
Modification (including translation)  of  FLUKA,  in whole or
in part,  is not permitted,  except for modification of FLUKA
User  Routines that do not  circumvent,  replace,  add to  or
modify any of the functions of the FLUKA core code. Permitted
modifications are referred to below as "Modifications".

3.
FLUKA is  licensed for  Use by the  Licensee  only,  and  the
Licensee shall not market,  distribute,  transfer, license or
sub-license, or in any way make available  ("Make Available")
FLUKA  or  Modifications,  in  whole  or  in  part,  to third
parties, without prior written permission. The Licensee shall
not assign or transfer this license.

4.
Notwithstanding section 3,  the Licensee may  Make  Available
his Modifications  of  FLUKA User Routines  to third  parties
under these license conditions.

5.
The  Licensee  shall  not insert FLUKA code or Modifications,
in whole or  in  part, into other codes without prior written
permission.

6.
The Licensee shall not reverse engineer,  decompile, decrypt,
disassemble or otherwise attempt to  derive  the  source code
from the FLUKA binary code or FLUKA data libraries (except as
and only to the  extent  that  any  foregoing  restriction is
prohibited by Law),

7.
Any use of FLUKA outside the scope of this license is subject
to prior written permission.

8.
The Licensee  shall report as soon as practical any errors or
bugs found in any portion of FLUKA to the Authors.

PUBLICATIONS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

9.
The Licensee shall explicitly acknowledge his use of FLUKA in
any publication or communication,  scientific  or  otherwise,
relating to such use,  by  citing the FLUKA set of references
(see below) and the FLUKA copyright notice.

10.
The  Licensee  shall ensure that the FLUKA set of references,
the  FLUKA  copyright notice and these license conditions are
not altered or removed from FLUKA and that all embodiments of
FLUKA  and  Modifications  contain  in  full the FLUKA set of
references,  the FLUKA  copyright  notice,  and these license
conditions.

11.
Any insertion of FLUKA code or Modifications,  in whole or in
part,  into other codes with permission under section 5 shall
preserve the  FLUKA set of references,  the  FLUKA  copyright
notice  and  these  license  conditions in the  FLUKA code or
Modifications concerned, and must also reproduce these within
any  additional  global  notices included  along  or embedded
within  the  software  into  which  the  FLUKA  code  or  the
Modifications have been integrated, in whole or in part.  Any
part of  the FLUKA code  or  Modifications so  inserted shall
continue to be subject to these license conditions.

12.
Publication   of  any  results  of  comparisons  of  specific
internal physics models  extracted from FLUKA with permission
under  section 6  with  data or with other codes or models is
subject to prior written permission.

13.
Contributions  to  any formal code comparisons and validation
exercises pertaining to FLUKA, sponsored by recognised bodies
or   within  the  framework  of  recognised  conferences  and
workshops, are subject to prior written permission.

with immediate effect from the date on which a new version of
FLUKA  becomes  available.  In either case sections 14 and 15
above shall  continue  to apply to any  Use  or Modifications
made under these license conditions.
