Scientific paper

We report on the preliminary results of our current Monte Carlo investigation into prompt neutrino production by cosmic-ray (CR) impacts on the lunar surface using the latest available enhancements in FLUKA. In contrast to previous work, the effects of charm are now included. The model of the lunar surface is taken to be the chemical composition of soils found at various landing sites during the Ap ollo and Luna programs, and then averaging over all such sites to define a generic regolith for this analysis. We present examples of fluences and fluxes predicted for charged particles, neutrons, photons, and neutrinos produced by FLUKA for energetic CR impacts.
