MONTE CARLO PARTICLE TRANSPORT WITH FIRST EVENT SOURCE ESTIMATION.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A methodology for Monte Carlo particle transport calculations is developed. The first event source is first determined either by Monte Carlo, analytically or numerically. This source is then sampled uniformly and used to start particle random walks. The individual terms of the Neumann series of the solution are then estimated separately and later summed. Monte Carlo results are compared to an analytic solution for a particle slowing down/deep penetration problem.
