FLUKA is a general purpose tool for calculations of particle transport and interactions with matter, covering an extended range of applications spanning from proton and electron accelerator shielding to target design, calorimetry, activation, dosimetry, detector design, Accelerator Driven Systems, cosmic rays, neutrino physics, radiotherapy etc (copied from: https://flukafiles.web.cern.ch/flukafiles/manual/0.html).
Getting access to the Installation on Maxwell
DESY does not hold an Institutional FLUKA Licence. Therefore the FLUKA single-user license applies. The licensing page allows however for central installations: For central FLUKA installations on computing clusters of universities/institutes it is not necessary to obtain an Institutional FLUKA Licence. However, it is mandatory that all FLUKA users register on this website and accept the Single User Licence Agreement.
To get access to the FLUKA installation you will need to follow the registration procedure. At the end of the registration process you will receive an email confirming your "e-group subscription". Please forward this email to uco@desy.de (as a confirmation that you have registered and accepted the single user license) and ask to be added to the fluka group.
