Variance Reduction and Noise Source Sampling Techniques for Monte Carlo Simulations of Neutron Noise Induced by Mechanical Vibrations

Hunter Belanger, Davide Mancusi, Amélie Rouchon +1

Neutron noise in nuclear power reactors refers to the small fluctuations around the average neutron flux at steady state resulting from time-dependent perturbations inside the core…

Unbiasedness and Optimization of Regional Weight Cancellation

Hunter Belanger, Davide Mancusi, Andrea Zoia

The Monte Carlo method is often used to simulate systems which can be modeled by random walks. In order to calculate observables, in many implementations the "walkers" carry a stat…
