Programs for the Landau and the Vavilov distributions and the corresponding random numbers

Title of program: LANDAU Catalogue Id: AAUI_v1_0 Nature of problem The Landau and the Vavilov distributions are used to describe the energy loss of charged particles traversing a thin layer of matter. For Monte Carlo stimulations it is of particular interest to have a random number generator for these distributions.
