Simulation of Pulsed Neutron Source Experiment in Tehran Research Reactor Core (TRR) [PDF]
One of the useful methods for measuring fast neutron decay constant in a nuclear reactor core is the pulsed neutron source experiment as MCNP code is based on the Monte Carlo method, so able to track the time-dependent behavior of the particles in static
