Notes:<br />

1. The µ-nucleus interactions are treated either as a continuous energy loss by the muon (IMUNU= 0) or<br />

as a discrete process (IMUNU≥1), in an exclusive way i.e.:<br />

• If IMUNU= 0, the dE/dx due to the interactions is added to that coming from direct (e + /e − )<br />

pair production in the routine GPRELA.<br />

• If IMUNU≥ 1, the total cross section is computed in GMUNUI.<br />

2. The total cross sections for hadronic interactions cannot be tabulated at initialisation time, as they are<br />

dependent on the nature of the incident particle. They are computed at tracking time by the function<br />

FLDIST in case of FLUKA [PHYS520], GHESIG in case of GHEISHA [PHYS510] or FMDIST in case of<br />

MICAP [PHYS530].<br />
