TL;DR Summary
surface 0 not found for cell 101, But I didn't use the surface 0.
Hello,
I am working through the MCNP manual and am experiencing the following error as well as warning when trying to run the sample problem from the manual.
The fatal error I get is
"fatal error. surface 0 not found for cell 1050."
I have upload the output file with the errors in case I have not properly explained what's going on.

Thanks for your reply, I just solved this problem, My cell card is not aligned.
 
Hello everyone, I am currently working on a burnup calculation for a fuel assembly with repeated geometric structures using MCNP6. I have defined two materials (Material 1 and Material 2) which are actually the same material but located in different positions. However, after running the calculation with the BURN card, I am encountering an issue where all burnup information(power fraction(Initial input is 1,but output file is 0), burnup, mass, etc.) for Material 2 is zero, while Material 1...
Hi everyone, I'm a complete beginner with MCNP and trying to learn how to perform burnup calculations. Right now, I'm feeling a bit lost and not sure where to start. I found the OECD-NEA Burnup Credit Calculational Criticality Benchmark (Phase I-B) and was wondering if anyone has worked through this specific benchmark using MCNP6? If so, would you be willing to share your MCNP input file for it? Seeing an actual working example would be incredibly helpful for my learning. I'd be really...
