mcnp_si_sp_hist: energy distribution histogram entries

In radsafer: Radiation Safety

energy distribution histogram entries

Description

: This function is deprecated and will be removed in a future package revision. For now, it is still usable. The replacement, mcnp_sdef_erg_hist makes MCNP histogram probabilities for energy bins from data either copied and pasted or from the global environment.

Usage

mcnp_si_sp_hist(emin, bin_prob, my_dir = NULL, write_permit = "n")

Arguments

emin	A vector of lower bounding energy. (The highest energy is the higher bound.) If higher bounding energy data is available, convert it to lower bound by concatenating e.g. emin = c(my_low-E, emax_data). This vector length must exceed the probability vector by 1.
bin_prob	A vector of the bin probabilities. There are n-1 probability values for n values of emin.
my_dir	Optional directory. The function will write an output text file, si_sp.txt to the working directory by default.
write_permit	Set this to 'y' to allow writing output to your directory.

Details

Data may be identified by named vector, e.g. my_emin_data, or by column of a data frame, e.g. photons_cs137_hist$E_MeV (which is in emax format) and photons_cs137_hist$prob (bin_prob).

Value

A vector of energy bins and probabilities for an energy distribution, formatted as needed for MCNP input. It is designed for copying and pasting into an MCNP input. (The # should be changed to the appropriate distribution number.) The data is saved in the global environment and appended to a file in the user's working directory, si_sp.txt. Two plots of the data are provided to the plot window, one with two linear axes and one with two log axes.
