Beginner Guide

Welcome to FLUKA! Using a Monte Carlo transport code for the first time can be a difficult endeavour. In order to facilitate the start of your FLUKA journey, we have designed this beginner guide, in two parts: a PDF guide and comprehensive examples.

The PDF covers the essentials:

  • Installation
  • FLUKA Overview (Monte Carlo basics, particle-matter interactions, Flair)
  • Geometry
  • Scoring

 

 

Ready for the next step?

Explore our examples to walk through a complete test case, with the help of animated demonstrations. It is ideal whether you've finished the guide or have experience with other Monte Carlo codes and are looking for a quick onboarding.
