VNS Tokamak OpenMC-Serpent Validation for Medical Isotope Studies

CoRR
The Volumetric Neutron Source (VNS) tokamak is a proposed fusion reactor for testing and qualification of reactor components for future use in a fusion power facility, and has potential use for radioisotope production. The VNS geometry is modeled in the Serpent and OpenMC neutronics codes.

Modeling Decay Heat with a Simplified Depletion Chain in OpenMC

Transactions of the American Nuclear Society
OpenMC can be used to computationally model depletion and produce estimates of decay heat. As an input to depletion simulations, OpenMC requires a depletion chain that details nuclide transmutation pathways. The simplified CASL depletion chain was designed to track relatively few nuclides while still accurately modeling the effective neutron ...

Distributed OpenMP Offloading of OpenMC on Intel GPU MAX Accelerators

CoRR
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations play a pivotal role in diverse scientific and engineering domains, with applications ranging from nuclear physics to materials science. Harnessing the computational power of high-performance computing (HPC) systems, especially Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), has become essential for accelerating MC simulations. This paper
