Angular Distribution Calculator

Maintainer: Jonathan Williams

Contributors: K. Starosta, J. Williams

Description

Calculates the directional distribution for gamma radiation emitted from an axially symmetric oriented source. In part based on g77 code by K. Starosta for gamma-gamma angular correlations.

The ang_dist code prompts the user to input parameters, while the ang_dist_cmd code takes command line aguments as parameters (running the code without arguments displays a list of arguments needed).

Installation

Use make to compile. Tested and seems to work with gfortran on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 and Scientific Linux 6. Requires libmathlib (in the cernlib package on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 and SL6). If on SL6, you may need to replace the LIB line in the Makefile with:

LIB = /usr/lib64/cernlib/2006/lib/libmathlib.so.2_gfortran

Notes from porting the code from g77 to gfortran:

• used -std=legacy flag to supress warnings
• used -ffixed-line-length-none to avoid errors caused by lines that go over the default 72 character limit
