`enable_em` not working #54

Open Jean1995 opened 9 months ago

Jean1995 commented 9 months ago

When I try to enable the simulation of electromagnetic cascades, i.e., setting config.enable_em = True, I receive the error

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Unable to synchronously open file (unable to open file: name = '/home/jean/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/MCEq/data/mceq_db_EM_Tsai-Max_Z7.31.h5', errno = 2, error message = 'No such file or directory', flags = 0, o_flags = 0)

The file mceq_db_EM_Tsai-Max_Z7.31.h5 doesn't seem to exist, I also can't find the code which is supposed to download this file... Where is my mistake, how can I get this file? 🙂

Hi!

Well, that file is not public unfortunately for reasons you may know.

I'm wondering if can calculate inclusive cross sections for e+- pair production or bremsstrahlung with PROPOSAL? If yes, I could enable EM without using this special file..
