    Error Mcnp
AI Thread Summary
A user encountered an error during a run that prevented output file generation, seeking help to correct the input file. Another participant identified the issue as a geometry error related to the placement of a point source near the interface of two cells. The original poster confirmed that this insight helped them identify their own error. The discussion highlights the importance of proper geometry setup in simulations. Resolving such errors is crucial for successful run outcomes.

Hello everyone,

trying a run I've got the following error message, and thus no output file since the run stopped by itsefl.
Please, has anyone encountered this error and would happen to know how to correct the input file ? (any hint help)

Thanks to all of you

Hi,
like in the french forum (private joke) it is a geometry error,

Hi,
thanks to you, I found the error
 
i encountered this error too but i got ouput... i put the point source near the interface of two cells and the error arises
 

Thread 'Energy Spectrum Attenuation'

Hello, I'm currently trying to compare theoretical results with an MCNP simulation. I'm using two discrete sets of data, intensity (probability) and linear attenuation coefficient, both functions of energy, to produce an attenuated energy spectrum after x-rays have passed through a thin layer of lead. I've been running through the calculations and I'm getting a higher average attenuated energy (~74 keV) than initial average energy (~33 keV). My guess is I'm doing something wrong somewhere...
