Nuclear Physics Seminar

"The FLUKA code: Design, Physics and Applications"

Presented by Alberto Fasso`, Jefferson Laboratory

Tuesday, May 10, 2011, 11:00 am — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

FLUKA is a general purpose Monte Carlo code for particle transport and interactions. Its unique design features and original physics models give it a high level of predictivity, as shown by numerous benchmarks against experimental data, and allow it to be used in a large number of very different applications: accelerator shielding and activation, dosimetry and radiation protection, radiation damage, calorimetry,particle physics (including neutrino physics), Accelerator Driven Systems,
cosmic ray research, space radiation, hadron therapy, etc. Using FLUKA is easy and does not require any programming skill. Its friendly interface has made it increasingly popular in recent years. In this seminar the code will be introduced by stressing its most important design features, followed by a short survey of its physics
models and by examples of successful benchmarks and applications.
