How to Simulate Charged-Particle Energy-Loss Straggling in MCNP5?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on simulating charged-particle energy-loss straggling using MCNP5. Participants emphasize the importance of utilizing available resources, including the MCNP help files and conducting thorough Google searches for sample codes and examples. A recommended resource is the book available on ResearchGate, which contains numerous examples relevant to MCNP5. Additionally, users are advised to check pinned threads in the Nuclear Engineering forum for curated links and information about MCNP.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with MCNP5 simulation software
  • Understanding of charged-particle interactions in radiation physics
  • Basic knowledge of Monte Carlo methods
  • Ability to navigate and utilize online academic resources
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the MCNP5 user manual for specific examples of charged-particle simulations
  • Research the book titled "Radiation problems from analytical to Monte Carlo solutions" on ResearchGate
  • Investigate additional MCNP versions or alternative software for non-electron charged particles
  • Review pinned threads in the Nuclear Engineering forum for comprehensive MCNP resources
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, nuclear engineers, and students interested in simulating charged-particle interactions and energy-loss straggling using MCNP5.

Welcome to PF.

What have you seen in your MCNP help files? Have you actually done a Google search for such examples? My brief Google search effort yielded lots of good hits.

Thank you very much for your answer sir. Can you suggest a site or resource about mcnp5 samples?
 
Hi,
For example, in this books there are many examples,

I did a Google search on MCNP Examples and got lots of good hits. Perhaps try that... :wink:

Just a note on 'charged particles'. If these are electrons then MCNP5 may be of use. If they need to be anything else then another version of MCNP, or another program entirely will be needed.
