FLUKA is a general purpose Monte Carlo code for particle transport and
<br>
interactions. Its unique design features and original physics models
<br>
give it a high level of predictivity, as shown by numerous benchmarks
<br>
against experimental data, and allow it to be used in a large number
<br>
of very different applications: accelerator shielding and activation,
<br>
dosimetry and radiation protection, radiation damage, calorimetry,
<br>
particle physics (including neutrino physics), Accelerator Driven
Systems, <br>
cosmic ray research, space radiation, hadron therapy, etc.
<br>
Using FLUKA is easy and does not require any programming skill. Its
<br>
friendly interface has made it increasingly popular in recent years.
<br>
In this seminar the code will be introduced by stressing its most
<br>
important design features, followed by a short survey of its physics
<br>
models and by examples of successful benchmarks and applications.
<br>
<br>
If the audience will show a sufficient interest, the possibility to
<br>
organize a course at Jlab will be discussed.</font>
