Description

FLUKA is a particle transport and interaction code capable of handling hadronic and electromagnetic showers up to very high energies (100 TeV). It is widely used for shielding and target design, for particle production and activation studies, for dosimetry, for cosmic ray showers and detector response. An overview of the code and a general description of its physical models are presented, with emphasis on the comparisons with experimental data. The FLUKA capabilities are then illustrated through a few representative applications.
