Introduction

Details about the purpose of FLUKA can be found on the official web page [1] which states:

FLUKA is a fully integrated particle physics MonteCarlo simulation package. It has many applications in high energy experimental physics and engineering, shielding, detector and telescope design, cosmic ray studies, dosimetry, medical physics and radio-biology.

Manuals about the usage of FLUKA can be found there as well, there is also an active mailing list to ask questions (see [2]).

Please note that the FLUKA user license allows the free usage of FLUKA for non-commericial scientific research. By using FLUKA on the cluster you accept the user license.

Currently, FLUKA version 2011.2c-5 (Oct 2016) is installed on the cluster (older versions may be replaced from time to time if a minor release update is available).
