Skin effect in neutron transport theory [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2021 We identify a neutron-flux "skin effect" in the context of neutron transport theory. The skin effect, which emerges as a boundary layer at material interfaces, plays a critical role in a correct description of transport phenomena. A correct accounting of the boundary-layer structure helps bypass computational difficulties reported in the literature ...

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 ...

The Application of the Combined Fission Matrix Theory in Fast Reactors
Frontiers in Energy Research, 2021 The combined fission matrix theory is a recently-developed hybrid neutron transport method. It features high efficiency, fidelity, and resolution whole-core transport calculation. The theory is based on the assumption that the fission matrix element ai,j

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.

A ROBUST SECOND-ORDER MULTIPLE BALANCE METHOD FOR TIME-DEPENDENT NEUTRON TRANSPORT SIMULATIONS [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 A second-order “Time-Dependent Multiple Balance” (TDMB) method for solving neutron transport problems is introduced and investigated. TDMB consists of solving two coupled equations: (i) the original balance equation (the transport equation integrated ...

Flow probe of symmetry energy in relativistic heavy-ion reactions [PDF]
, 2013 Flow observables in heavy-ion reactions at incident energies up to about 1 GeV per nucleon have been shown to be very useful for investigating the reaction dynamics and for determining the parameters of reaction models based on transport theory.
