Description

The hadronic interaction models of FLUKA are briefly presented for both hN
and hA interactions.

Examples for their (in)ability in reproducing particle single and double
differential spectra from sub-GeV to TeV energies are presented. Some
comments on coherent and incoherent hA elastic interactions will also put forward.

Some hints about FLUKA photo and ElectroMagneticDissociation interactions
will also be presented, together with a few slides about the FLUKA
(anti)neutrino-nucleus interaction model.

All previous topics will then discussed in the framework of possible
extensions of the existing Corsika7-Fluka interface (which deals only with
non-elastic hA interactions in Air).

Last but not least, some slides will de dedicated to treatment and
interaction of low energy neutrons which is a completely different world in
Fluka (and in all neutronics codes), again in view of possible interest for
Corsika8.

A few slides showing past and present applications of FLUKA in
astroparticle physics will also available.
