SUMMARY
The discussion centers on resolving a geometry error in MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code) when calculating flux from neutron and photon sources. The error message indicates that ten particles were lost due to a "no cell found" issue. A solution is provided, recommending the removal of the calculation point at (0,0,0) for the F5 and F15 tally commands. This adjustment allows for successful execution of the code without particle loss.
