LUIN, a code for the calculation of cosmic ray propagation in the atmosphere
Description
This report is an update of the code published as HASL-275 (May 1973). An analytical straight-ahead transport code, LUIN, was developed for the calculation of cosmic-ray spectra, fluxes, and ionization in the earth's atmosphere. The input to the code is described, along with an ancillary code to prepare the angle-dependent rigidity cut-off input. LUIN takes into account solar modulation, the geomagnetic field, atmospheric temperature, altitude and the curvature of the earth. The code is written in FORTRAN IV for the CDC 6600. 5 tables
