Verification of a two-step code system MCS/RAST-F to fast reactor core analysis

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
RAST-F is a new full-core analysis code based on the two-step approach that couples a multi-group cross-section generation Monte-Carlo code MCS and a multi-group nodal diffusion solver.
