Reduced Variance using ADVANTG in Monte Carlo Calculations of Dose Coefficients to Stylized Phantoms [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 The estimation of dose coefficients of external radiation sources to the organs in phantoms becomes increasingly difficult for lower photon source energies. This study focus on the estimation of photon emitters around the phantom. The computer time needed to calculate a result within a certain precision can be lowered by several orders of magnitude ...

ADVANTG An Automated Variance Reduction Parameter Generator [PDF]
, 2013 The primary objective of ADVANTG is to reduce both the user effort and the computational time required to obtain accurate and precise tally estimates across a broad range of challenging transport applications. ADVANTG has been applied to simulations of real-world radiation shielding, detection, and neutron activation problems.

PWR Facility Dose Modeling Using MCNP5 and the CADIS/ADVANTG Variance-Reduction Methodology [PDF]
, 2007 The feasibility of modeling a pressurized-water-reactor (PWR) facility and calculating dose rates at all locations within the containment and adjoining structures using MCNP5 with mesh tallies is presented. Calculations of dose rates resulting from neutron and photon sources from the reactor (operating and shut down for various periods) and the spent ...

ANALYSIS OF DOSE RATES AROUND THE SLOVENIAN SILO-TYPE LILW REPOSITORY USING ADVANTG [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 The ADVANTG code was used to analyze dose rates from the proposed Slovenian silo-type low and intermediate level waste (LILW) repository. Detailed calculations of dose rates are challenging as gamma-sources are located in thick concrete containers and the effect of backscattering in the air has to be considered.

Analysis of DD, TT and DT Neutron Streaming Experiments with the ADVANTG Code [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 The paper presents an analysis of DD, TT and DT neutron streaming benchmark experiments with the recently released hybrid transport code ADVANTG (AutomateD VAriaNce reducTion Generator). ADVANTG combines the deterministic neutron transport solver Denovo with the Monte Carlo transport code MCNP via the principle of variance reduction.
