An MCNPX accelerator beam source
Progress in Nuclear Energy, 2009 Abstract We have developed a new source feature for MCNPX that enables the transport of particles in a field-free drift region for a beam produced by an accelerator. The beam representation is based on the formulation used in the TRANSPORT charged-particle-beam code.

Monte Carlo analysis of energy deposition and X-ray fluence in cylindrical anode systems. [PDF]
J Appl Clin Med PhysAbstract Background Cylindrical anode X‐ray systems are increasingly used in multisource imaging; however, electron beam interactions with the curved anodes cause geometric distortions that alter energy deposition and X‐ray emission. Understanding these effects is key to optimizing system performance.

Evaluation of fast fission factor in a typical pool type research reactor [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Research and Applications, 2022 One of the important factors of a nuclear reactor core is the fast fission factor. This paper calculates this parameter based on space and energy-dependent method using the PTRAC card of MCNPX code. Tehran research reactor (TRR) is taken as a case study,

Validation of MCNPX-PoliMi fission models [PDF]
2012 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference Record (NSS/MIC), 2012 We present new results on the measurement of correlated, outgoing neutrons from spontaneous fission events in a Cf-252 source. 16 EJ-309 liquid scintillation detectors are used to measure neutron-neutron correlations for various detector angles. Anisotropy in neutron emission is observed.
