MCNPX Workshops Descriptions
MCNPX experts from Los Alamos will lead in the teaching of these workshops on the capabilities of MCNPX.
These workshops go at a much faster pace and cover more material in greater depth than the MCNP/X introductory workshops. The small workshop size enables a variable format that focuses on topics of interest to the individual participants and on participant's specific Monte Carlo problems.
Topics included are:
Variance reduction - how to speed up and converge your problems better than ever;
Mistakes even the most experienced MCNP/X users make 10% of the time.
Latest code capabilities - tally tagging, pulse height anti-coincidence detectors, delayed gammas, spontaneous photons from radioactive sources, and more.
The latest MCNPX version (2.7.0) distributed by RSICC is used in this workshop. Features include:
ACT card for controlling activation
Cyclic time-bin option
Photofission multiplicity option
Pulsed source options
Delayed-particle production
Tally tagging
Tally plot upgrades
LET tally
Focused beam sources
PTRAC coincidence option
MCPLOT arithmetic commands
LLNL photofission multiplicity option
Receiver-operator characterization (ROC) tally option
Pulse-height light tally: triple and quadruple coincidences
Time-dependent F8 tallies using the pulse-height light option
