Branching stochastic mechanics: Clustering and connected correlations within a branching-process representation of the Schrödinger equation
Eric Dumonteil, Benoît Bischoff, Alain Letourneau +2
Can finite-range correlations hide in the statistics of an extended quantum state? The Schrödinger-Nagasawa transform represents the wave function by positive forward and backward…
Branching stochastic mechanics: Relative localization and collective poles from Bohm/Fisher feedback
Benoit Bischoff, Eric Dumonteil
Branching stochastic mechanics (BSM) provides a reciprocal branching representation of the Schrödinger--Nagasawa pair. Its centered forward--backward kernel $C_{\rm FB}=\mathbb E_ω…
Neutron production with a 10 kW HiCANS based on SATELIT, a CEA-Saclay target with liquid lithium
L. Thulliez, N. Berton, R. Boudouin +33
High-Current Accelerator-driven Neutron Sources (HiCANS) are currently under development across Europe to address the shortage of medium-scale neutron sources, as many research nuc…
Limit theorems for the neutron transport equation
Eric Dumonteil, Emma Horton, Andreas E. Kyprianou +1
Over the last decade, ingenuous developments in Monte Carlo methods have enabled the unbiased estimation of adjoint-weighted reactor parameters expressed as bilinear forms, such as…
Improvement of Geant4 Neutron-HP package: Unresolved Resonance Region description with Probability Tables
M. Zmeškal, L. Thulliez, P. Tamagno +1
Whether for shielding applications or for criticality safety studies, solving the neutron transport equation with good accuracy requires to take into account the resonant structure…
Rough neutron fields and nuclear reactor noise
Eric Dumonteil
Nuclear reactor cores achieve sustained fission chain reactions through the so-called 'critical state' -a subtle equilibrium between their material properties and their geometries.…
Calibration of nuclear recoils at the 100 eV scale using neutron capture
L. Thulliez, D. Lhuillier, F. Cappella +34
The development of low-threshold detectors for the study of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering and for the search for light dark matter necessitates methods of low-energy…
