DPMJET

Event Generator

USERDUMP

17/11/06  The common mgread routine could not dump the source particles.

 Subscript out of range on file line 117, procedure mgread.f/vxread.
>>> Attempt to access the 301-th element of variable ipr.
>>> 4Aborted (core dumped)

 

In mgread, the parameter MXPR has to be increased:

PARAMETER ( MXPR = 300 )

because dpmjet can generate more than 300 particles x event at
7+7 Tev
 
DPMJET

Event Generator

 

7/11/06 source particles multiplicity of p-p collisions at 7 Tev. Comparisons with different source of secondaries (DTUJET, DPMJET), we found some inconsistencies We did not run the right event generator dpmjet but the default one in the FLUKA v3.1 which is not adapted to high energy physics.

For calling DPMJET:

$FLUPRO/flutil/ldpm3qmd -o executable name -m fluka source_routine name.o

a source routine has to be developed for specificyng the parameters of the beams, and the SOURCE card is then also impacted.

a output fortran file fort.19 is generated at the end of the FLUKA runs and tells that DPMJET was correctly run. 

Geometry 16/02/07 error message in .log:

Subscript out of range on file line 376, procedure g1.f/.Attempt to access the 0-th element of variable ir1.

nse/conditions/requests:

 

The source was located on the border between 2 regions: this can not be handled by FLUKA.

For a pointlike source description, the solution is to extent the region, so the source is located inside the region.

For source positions distributed according to Gaussian distributions in x, y and z, a check has to be implemented inside the source routine to avoid any occurrence of a primary on a border between 2 regions.
