Neutron Transport Calculations Using Monte-Carlo Methods
Fusion reactions from direct-drive inertial confinement fusion experiments at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) release large amounts of stored nuclear energy. Most of it is given off as energetic neutrons. Plastic scintillators are used as detectors for these neutrons. The neutrons that interact with the scintillator produce photons that are recorded using a photomultiplier tube on a f...
متن کاملBenchmark quantum Monte Carlo calculations
Fixed node diffusion Monte Carlo !FN-DMC" atomization energies are calculated for a benchmark set of 55 molecules. Using single determinant trial wave functions, comparison with experiment yields an average absolute deviation of 2.9 kcal/mol, placing this simplest form of FN-DMC roughly at the same level of accuracy as the CCSD!T"/aug-cc-pVQZ method. However, unlike perturbative wave function e...
متن کاملBenchmark Calculations of Neutron Production and Induced Radioactivity for a Proton and a Carbon Therapy Accelerator*
This study intends to predict the scope of neutron production and induced radioactivity for two therapy accelerators in Taiwan: 235 MeV proton and 400 MeV/A carbon ion accelerators. For radiation safety concern, much effort has been put into associated benchmark calculations to ensure the quality of predictions. Two Monte Carlo codes FLUKA and MCNPX were applied to calculate the neutron yield f...
متن کاملParallel Pentran Solutions of the “tiel” Steady State Neutron Transport Benchmark Problems
The TIEL benchmarks include a set of analytical benchmark solutions to the transport equation in infinite media. In this paper, we present solutions for the infinite planar, point, spherical shell, and solid spherical sources solved using the PENTRAN 3-D Parallel SN code compared to reference solutions of the TIEL benchmark problems. Excellent agreement (less than 0.7% difference) was achieved ...
متن کاملA Method of Characteristics Solution to the Oecd/nea 3d Neutron Transport Benchmark Problem
A method of characteristics for steady-state transport calculations that can be applied to problems with a full and explicit 3D Cartesian system model has been implemented into the new code, MOCK-3D. Procedures for performing 3D ray-tracing are derived from methods that are employed in most lattice physics codes and simplifications to the discretized problem model minimize the expense associate...
