چکیده
Recent developments in the physical model of 1 MeV to 100 TeV hadron and lepton interactions with nuclei and atoms are described. These include a new nuclear cross section library, a model for soft pion production, the cascade-exciton model, the dual parton model, deuteron-nucleus and neutrino-nucleus interaction models, detailed description of μ−, π− and p absorption and a unified treatment of muon and charged hadron electromagnetic interactions with matter. New algorithms are implemented into the MARS13(98) Monte Carlo code and benchmarked against experimental data. The code capabilities to simulate cascades and generate a variety of results in complex media have been also enhanced.

The MARS code is under continuous development and has recently undergone substantial improvements that further increase its reliability and predictive power in numerous shielding, accelerator, detector and space applications. The major developments and new features of the MARS15 (2004) version described in this paper concern an extended list of elementary particles and arbitrary heavy ions and ...
متن کاملHeat Structure Coupling of CUPID and MARS for the Passive Auxiliary Feedwater System Analysis
In the present study, the CUPID code was coupled with a system analysis code MARS and the coupled code was applied for the simulation of the PASCAL test facility [1], which is constructed to validate the cooling performance of the Passive Auxiliary Feedwater System (PAFS). The two-phase phenomena in the steam supply system including the condensation in the Passive Condensate Heat Exchanger (PCH...
متن کاملPipeline Expansion in Coordinated Applications
To support the integration of existing programs into multidisciplinary applications, we have constructed the Multidisciplinary Application Runtime System (MARS). MARS supports legacy code integration, heterogeneous execution environments, conditional execution ows, dynamic module invocation and realignment, and dynamic binding of I/O paths. It also provides a simple speci cation language to scr...

We overview our recent research on planetary mobility. Products of this effort include the Field Integrated Design & Operations rover (FIDO), Sample Return Rover (SRR), reconfigurable rover units that function as an All Terrain Explorer (ATE), and a multi-Robot Work Crew of closely cooperating rovers (RWC). FIDO rover is an advanced technology prototype; its design and field testing support NAS...
متن کاملTesting technologies and strategies for exploration in Australian Mars analogues: A review
Australia is an ideal testing ground in preparation for the robotic and human exploration of Mars. Numerous sites with landforms or processes analogous to those on Mars are present and the deserts of central Australia provide a range of locations for free-ranging Mars analogue mission simulations. The latest developments in testing technologies and strategies for exploration in Australian Mars ...
