MCNP: How to display particles outside the source?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

To display particles outside the source in MCNP, utilize the "plot" command in both the MCNP visual editor and the MCNP output file. This command enables the visualization of particle tracks from the source to the tally region. Additionally, the "track" option in the MCNP input file allows users to specify regions for tracking particles, facilitating a clearer understanding of particle paths. These methods are essential for effective visualization in MCNP simulations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code)
  • Understanding of the MCNP visual editor
  • Knowledge of the "plot" command in MCNP
  • Experience with MCNP input file configurations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the "plot" command functionality in MCNP documentation
  • Explore the "track" option for particle tracking in MCNP input files
  • Learn about visualizing tally regions in MCNP outputs
  • Investigate advanced visualization techniques in MCNP simulations
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, physicists, and engineers working with MCNP simulations who need to visualize particle trajectories and improve their understanding of particle interactions in tally regions.

Mcnp
Particle display in visual editor of mcnp input file only shows particles inside source, I am interested to see particle path towards tally region. Plz guide thanks

To display particles outside the source in MCNP, you can use the "plot" command in the MCNP visual editor. This will allow you to plot the particle tracks from the source to the tally region. You can also use the "plot" command in the MCNP output file to view the particle tracks in the tally region. Additionally, you can use the "track" option in the MCNP input file to specify specific regions to track particles through. This will allow you to see the paths of particles from the source to the tally region. I hope this helps guide you in visualizing particles outside the source in MCNP.
