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 کاملHigh Resolution Calculations of Merging Neutron Stars II: Neutrino Emission
The remnant resulting from the merger of two neutron stars produces neutrinos in copious amounts. In this paper we present the neutrino emission results obtained via Newtonian, high-resolution simulations of the coalescence event. These simulations use three-dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics together with a nuclear, temperature dependent equation of state and a multi-flavour neutrino ...
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 کاملType II superconductivity and magnetic flux transport in neutron stars
The transition to a type II proton superconductor which is believed to occur in a cooling neutron star is accompanied by changes in the equation of hydrostatic equilibrium and by the formation of proton vortices with quantized magnetic flux. Analysis of the electron Boltzmann equation for this system and of the proton supercurrent distribution formed at the transition leads to the derivation of...
