Neutron Stars—Cooling and Transport [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2015 Observations of thermal radiation from neutron stars can potentially provide information about the states of supranuclear matter in the interiors of these stars with the aid of the theory of neutron-star thermal evolution. We review the basics of this theory for isolated neutron stars with strong magnetic fields, including most relevant thermodynamic ...

Conservative neutron transport theory [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1977 A functional analytic development of the Case full-range and half-range expansions for the neutron transport equation for a conservative medium is presented. A technique suggested by Larsen is used to overcome the difficulties presented by the noninvertibility of the transport operator K−1 on its range.

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

ANALYSIS AND COMPARISON OF APOLLO3® AND TRIPOLI-4® NEUTRON NOISE SOLVERS [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 Neutron noise analysis addresses the description of small time-dependent flux fluctuations in reactor cores, induced by small global or local perturbations of the macroscopic cross sections due to density fluctuations of the coolant, to vibrations of ...
