How can I find the stopping power for a single energy value in FLUKA?

AI Thread Summary
To find the stopping power for a single energy value in FLUKA, the 'STOPHZ' card should be added to the input file. This card is specifically designed for specifying stopping power at a designated energy. Users are encouraged to consult the FLUKA manual for detailed information regarding the use of this card. If the manual is unclear, seeking guidance from additional resources or forums may be beneficial. Proper utilization of the 'STOPHZ' card is essential for accurate stopping power calculations in FLUKA simulations.

Hello friends. How can I find the stopping power for a single energy value in the fluka? Which card should I add to the input file for this?

I couldn't find anything about this card, unfortunately, which guide do you use in the guide?
 
Hello, I'm currently trying to compare theoretical results with an MCNP simulation. I'm using two discrete sets of data, intensity (probability) and linear attenuation coefficient, both functions of energy, to produce an attenuated energy spectrum after x-rays have passed through a thin layer of lead. I've been running through the calculations and I'm getting a higher average attenuated energy (~74 keV) than initial average energy (~33 keV). My guess is I'm doing something wrong somewhere...
