Stopping power and projected range for fluka code
How do I calculate the stopping power or projected range for aluminum in Fulka. And in which output file is this data located?How can I edit a change in the input file?

How do I calculate the stopping power or projected range for aluminum in Fulka. And in which output file is this data located?How can I edit a change in the input file?
The title of the example of "Charged pion fluence inside and around a proton-irradiated Be target"

So, is one looking at slowing down of protons in Al? Or, other particles? Slowing down of protons, subatomic particles, and nuclei are different.

I'm not a FLUKA user yet, but I'll probably get there. I've been using PENELOPE (U. of Barcelona) and starting to learn PHITS (JAEA)

I'm finding the documentation to FLUKA to be challenging.

See if the following helps:

Meanwhile, I'll look into the matter to see if I can find a simple explanation.

It might be worthwhile to contact the group at CERN.

Edit/update: for reference and some background (middle years of Fluka)
