Abstract:
Goal of the NASA funded FLEUR project is to develop a simulation tool to predict the impact of radiation environments, in particular to evaluate the effect of shielding in space applications. The heart of this tool is the FLUKA Monte Carlo transport code which is traditionally used in related areas of research such as radio-protection and dosimetry, cosmic ray physics and
modeling of biological effects of radiation on DNA (in connection with further external micro codes). An important aspect in this context are heavy ion nuclear interactions which at this point have been implemented in FLUKA for high and medium energies while work is proceeding to cover the low energy range. Further information is available at http://www.fluka.org and
