NAME

  ProtonEmission

SYNOPSIS

  call ProtonEmission (integer, intent (in) :: blockCount, 
                       integer, intent (in) :: blockList (:),
                       real,    intent (in) :: timeStep,
                       real,    intent (in) :: timeSimulation)

DESCRIPTION

  Creates protons (emission) inside the domain and records them on detector screen(s).
  This is the driver routine for proton emission at a particular time during the
  simulation. The domain structure and properties are assumed to remain frozen during
  the travel of the protons through the domain.

  Currently the protons do not interact with the domain, hence no domain update
  is necessary.

  The code consists of the following basic steps:

         1) Create the protons inside the domain
         2) Follow the protons motion through the domain
         3) Record protons on the detector screen(s)
         4) Write each screen proton to the detector file(s)

ARGUMENTS

  blockCount     : Number of blocks on current processor
  blockList      : All block ID numbers
  timeStep       : The current time step duration
  timeSimulation : The current simulation time

NOTES

  The current implementation can handle more than one detector screen. The proton
  paths are calculated using classical Newton mechanics and are deflected due to
  average electrical and magnetic fields in each cell.
