Brief Description:
The Flux Omni Uni Transformations (FLOUT) program integrates over a set of
unidirectional flux data to obtain omnidirectional flux, or, alternatively,
differentiates omnidirectional flux data to obtain unidirectional flux. The
input data is an array of flux values (either omni- or unidirectional) as a
function of either magnetic field strength or the cosine of the equatorial
pitch angle. A complete set of points is required spanning the region along
the field line from the point of interest to the atmospheric cutoff.
