Dear Nesrine,
low energy neutrons (below 20 MeV) are transported by a multi-group algorithm.
Therefore, no explicit proton generation is performed, except few cases (see section 10.3.3 of the manual)
and chlorine is not among these case.
Sorry, but you cannot add yourself the cross section for an isotope.
Best regards, luigi

Dear Fluka expert,
I would like to simulate a mono energetic neutron beam from 1 MeV to 20 MeV impinging on a CLYC scintillator (composed of Cesium 133, Lithium 7, yttrium , and Chlorine 35).
I would like to score what kind of particle are created inside my target (1inch 1 inch cylinder).
I know from the literature that proton should be created thank to the reaction 35Cl (n,p)35S.
But when I score the proton fluence (usrbin) but it seems that there are no proton production …..
I was wondering if it is possible that this problem could be related to the missing cross section for the 35 Cl ? If so, is there a way to add the cross section for this isotope ?
Thanks for your help,
Nesrine
