Simulation of irradiation exposure of electronic devices due to heavy ion therapy with Monte Carlo Code MCNP6

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
During heavy ion irradiation therapy the patient has to be located exactly at the right position to make sure that the Bragg peak occurs in the tumour. The patient has to be moved in the range of millimetres to scan the ill tissue.

Multi-threading Performance of Geant4, MCNP6, and PHITS Monte Carlo Codes for Tetrahedral-mesh Geometry

, 2018
In this study, the multi-threading performance of the Geant4, MCNP6, and PHITS codes was evaluated as a function of the number of threads (N) and the complexity of the tetrahedral-mesh phantom.

Fission Multiplicity Distribution Sampling in MCNP6 Criticality Calculations

, 2015
In the solution of the neutron transport equation, the k-effective eigenvalue is related to the average number of neutrons emitted in fission of the system. It can be shown that if the average number of neutrons emitted in fission and the average neutron
