Application of the MCNPX-McStas interface for shielding calculations and guide design at ESS [PDF]
, 2014 Recently, an interface between the Monte Carlo code MCNPX and the neutron ray-tracing code MCNPX was developed [1, 2]. Based on the expected neutronic performance and guide geometries relevant for the ESS, the combined MCNPX-McStas code is used to ...

Estimation of the Reactivity Temperature Coefficients of the AP-1000 Reactor by MCNPX Code [PDF]
Arab Journal of Nuclear Sciences and Applications, 2018 The estimation of temperature coefficients of reactivity is a very important task because of its relationship to the safety of reactor operation. The temperature coefficient of reactivity includes the Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC), Doppler temperature coefficient (DTC) and the isothermal temperature coefficient (ITC).

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. To

Characterization of the light and flexible nonlead aprons as an alternative to Pb–PVC
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Background Radiation shielding is crucial for protecting healthcare professionals from scatter radiation during x‐ray procedures. Conventional lead aprons, although effective, are limited by their high weight, low flexibility, and potential toxicity.
