Water availability in Mount Ciremai National Parks (MCNP) is influenced by sustainability of the vegetation. Therefore, tree regeneration around water springs area needs to be investigated maintain ecosystem future. The purpose this study was analyzed and identify natural seedlings Seda Block MCNP. collections vegetation abiotic data carried out on 9 sample plots measuring 3 m × which purposive...

Background: In recent years, there has been an increased interest toward non-lead radiation shields consisting of small-sized filler particles doped into polymer matrices. In this paper, we study a new polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/WO3 composite in the presence of high-energy gamma photons through simulation via the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) simulation code. Materia...

Double heterogeneity of randomly located pebbles in the core and Coated Fuel Particles (CFPs) in the pebbles are specific features in pebble bed reactors and usually, because of difficulty to model with MCNP code capabilities, are neglected. In this study, characteristics of HTR-10, Tsinghua University research reactor, are used and not only double heterogeneous but also truncated CFPs and Pebb...

Pohang Neutron Facility (PNF) is a pulsed neutron facility based on the 100-MeV electron linear accelerator. It was constructed for nuclear data production in Korea, and it consists of an electron linear accelerator, a watercooled Ta target with a water moderator and a time-offlight path with an 11 m length. The 100-MeV electron linac uses a thermionic RF-gun, an alpha magnet, four quadrupole m...

The neutron energy spectra have been calculated in the fuel region, inner and outer irradiation sites of the zero power research reactor using the MCNP-4C code and the combination of the WIMS-D/4 transport code for generation of group constants and the three-dimensional CITATION diffusion code for core analysis calculations. The neutron energy spectrum has been divided into three regions and co...

MCNP is the Monte Carlo N-Particle radiation transport code whose history dates back more than half a century to the early days of computing. From a simple beginning, its uses have grown to include fields such as criticality safety, radiation shielding, oil well logging, and medical imaging and diagnostics and an international user community of over 3000 users. This large user community could o...

The manganese bath method for measuring the neutron emission rate of radionuclide sources requires corrections to be made for emitted neutrons which are not captured by manganese nuclei. The Monte Carlo particle transport code MCNP has been used to calculate the fractions of neutrons that escape from the boundaries of the tank, that are captured by the steel cavity in which the source is housed...
