A Variance-Decomposition Formula for Direct and Adjoint Monte Carlo Particle Transport Problems
Paul Rovel, Coline Larmier, Davide Mancusi +1
In fixed-source Monte Carlo particle-transport problems, obtaining an acceptable variance on the sought response is of paramount importance. Currently, the only rigorous tool to an…
Producing a complete nuclear data library for adjoint Monte Carlo simulations
Paul Rovel, Coline Larmier, Davide Mancusi +1
Radiation shielding applications related to reactor design typically involve situations where the source region (the core) is much larger than the detector region (a dosimeter). In…
The effect of branchless collisions and population control on correlations in Monte Carlo power iteration
T. Bonnet, H. Belanger, D. Mancusi +1
The investigation of correlations in Monte Carlo power iteration has been long dominated by the question of generational correlations and their effects on the estimation of statist…
