Hello everyone,
I would like to calculate the O15 production from my following input. I'm using Gate8.2I have found the output and tried to compare my output with some documents. I found my results per particle is very poor like 10 times less than from the documents.
Please help me providing the correct actor for production O15, C11 .....
