Conservative neutron transport theory

Neutron Transport Theory and Simulation

Devoted to describing neutron movement in media and the corresponding laws, neutron transport theory is the research basis for transmutation and activation, radiation damage to materials, radiation dose, and biological safety, among other topics. There are two methods for neutron transport calculation: the Monte Carlo method (also called the probabilistic method or the stochastic method) and th...

Neutron-Anti-Neutron Oscillation: Theory and Phenomenology

The discovery of neutrino masses has provided strong hints in favor of the possibility that B-L symmetry is an intimate feature of physics beyond the standard model. I discuss how important information about this symmetry as well as other scenarios for TeV scale new physics can be obtained from the baryon number violating process, n− n̄ oscillation. This article presents an overview of different...

Sensibility Theory and Conservative Complancency

In Ruling Passions , Simon Blackburn contends that we should reject sensibility theory because it serves to support a conservative complacency. Blackburn’s strategy is attractive in that it seeks to win this metaethical dispute – which ultimately stems from a deep disagreement over antireductionism – on the basis of an uncontroversial normative consideration. Therefore, Blackburn seems to offer...

Analytical Solutions for Spatially Variable Transport-Dispersion of Non-Conservative Pollutants

Analytical solutions have been obtained for both conservative and non-conservative forms of one-dimensional transport and transport-dispersion equations applicable for pollution as a result of a non-conservative pollutant-disposal in an open channel with linear spatially varying transport velocity and nonlinear spatially varying dispersion coefficient on account of a steady unpolluted lateral i...
