Type Zero

AI Thread Summary

Calculating flux in a bioshield cell is yielding zero results for the user, specifically for parameters f44 and f54. The community emphasizes the necessity of providing the complete input file to diagnose the issue effectively. Without the full context, troubleshooting becomes challenging. The discussion highlights the importance of sharing all relevant data for accurate assistance. Providing the complete input file is essential for resolving the calculation problem.

If you don't provide the full input file, we can't run it to work out what might be the problem.

Thread 'Energy Spectrum Attenuation'

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...
