Dear Hakan,
I believe the number of primaries in your problem accounts for the number of decays. It is the outcome of these decays that result in gamma or beta particles.
Regards,
Ricardo

Objet : [fluka-discuss]: Number of primaries for a radioactive source?
Dear FLUKA experts & users
For a radioactive source defined (by using HI-PROPE, RADDECAY and DCYCSORE cards), what does "number of primaries" mean? For example, in the decay of Cs-137 both beta and gamma particles are emitted. Assume that I defined 1.0E+6 primaries by START option. What does this number account for? Betas? Gammas? or sum of two?
Sincerely
