Design and Simulation of Photoneutron Source by MCNPX Monte Carlo Code for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulation study of droplet nucleation.
A new rigorous Monte Carlo simulation approach is employed to study nucleation barriers for droplets in Lennard-Jones fluid. Using the gauge cell method we generate the excess isotherm of critical clusters in the size range from two to six molecular diameters. The ghost field method is employed to compute the cluster free energy and the nucleation barrier with desired precision of (1-2)kT. Base...
متن کاملStochastic Programming by Monte Carlo Simulation Methods
We consider in this paper stochastic programming problems which can be formulated as an optimization problem of an expected value function subject to deterministic constraints. We discuss a Monte Carlo simulation approach based on sample average approximations to a numerical solution of such problems. In particular, we give a survey of a statistical inference of the sample average estimators of...
متن کاملBayesian Mixture Modeling by Monte Carlo Simulation
It is shown that Bayesian inference from data modeled by a mixture distribution can feasibly be performed via Monte Carlo simulation. This method exhibits the true Bayesian predictive distribution, implicitly integrating over the entire underlying parameter space. An innnite number of mixture components can be accommodated without diiculty, using a prior distribution for mixing proportions that...
متن کاملReliability Estimation by Advanced Monte Carlo Simulation
Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) offers a powerful means for evaluating the reliability of a system, due to the modeling flexibility that it offers indifferently of the type and dimension of the problem. The method is based on the repeated sampling of realizations of system configurations, which however are seldom of failure so that a large number of realizations must be simulated in order to achie...
