The main features of the FLUKA Monte Carlo code, which can deal with
transport and interaction of electromagnetic and hadronic particles, are
summarised. The physical models embedded in FLUKA are mentioned, as well as
examples of benchmarking against experimental data. A short history of the code
is provided and the following examples of applications are discussed in detail:
prediction of calorimetric performances, atmospheric neutrino flux
calculations, dosimetry in atmosphere and radiobiology applications, including
hadrontherapy and space radiation protection. Finally a few lines are dedicated
to the FLUKA server, from which the code can be downloaded.Comment: talk from the 2003 Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics
