@Alex A is correct, I was referring to NJOY and makxs. And I'm going to guess he is also correct (again noting I have never done it)... -
AAlex A replied to the thread Configuration of JEFF-3.3 Nuclear Data Library in MCNP6.These libraries used to be distributed as ENDF ("Evaluated Nuclear Data File") format 'tapes' that needed to be processed into ACE files...

AAlex A reacted to rpp's post in the thread How to apply Nemtab cross section library into PARCS? with
Informative.
You need to convert the nemtab into a PMAX file using GENPMAXS -
AAlex A replied to the thread Normalization of MCNP F4:P photon flux tally to experimental counts.I read 'I have no of particle per second' in that reply to mean 'Yes, I have the number of particles per second'. But what I believe is...

AMy personal bias is not to use rpp or rcc. I prefer to use simple planes and cylinders. That's mostly because of what I have wanted to...

Normalization of detectors is a thing. What you need is some way of knowing the number of particles per second in your real system...

AAlex A mentions there being no cell 1504. In the OP there is no surface 1504 either, it's a line number as printed out by MCNP...

AAlex A replied to the thread Particles lost in MCNP running.All space in the problem must belong to a cell, and no point in space may belong to more than one cell. That is a complicated input...
