Effects of ground movements on realistic guide models for the European Spallation Source

open access: yesPhysical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2020
We model the effect of ground movement, based on empirical experience, on the transport properties of long neutron guides by ray-tracing simulations. For a simple model, our results reproduce the large losses found by an earlier study, while for a more ...

Evaluation of PWR pressure vessel fast neutron fluence benchmarks from NUREG/CR-6115 with ares transport code [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2017
An accurate evaluation of PWR pressure vessel fast neutron fluence is essential to ensure pressure vessel integrity over the design lifetime. The discrete ordinates method is one of the main methods to treat such problems.
