Simulations of a parallel plate Fission Chamber using the MCNPX simulation code
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2020 Abstract MCNPX in its latest version is able to simulate the transportation of Fission Fragments. It opens the door to Fission Chamber simulations. Such simulations are not straightforward and comparisons with experimental spectra often failed. A procedure is described in the present paper to perform such simulation and to process the result to ...

Decommissioning Cost Estimate for the Ghana Research Reactor‐1 Facility Using the CERREX‐D2 Software
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The Ghana Research Reactor‐1 facility would certainly be decommissioned, either at the end of its life or by a decision to discontinue its operation. In planning for GHARR‐1’s eventual decommissioning, estimating the overall decommissioning cost is a major activity that needs to be undertaken to support budgeting and decision‐making for the project.
