 if the particle’s energy drops below this threshold, all energy will be deposited locally, and no further interactions will ensue. So, it’s likely that the 1.0 mm default cut corresponds to an energy higher than the characteristic X-rays that you are expecting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Hi Gaters;<br>
 in my output of energyspectrumactor, i don't have x-ray characteristics in<br>
my spectrum.<br>
