摘要: AbstractThe Monte-Carlo simulation of correlation measurements that rely on the detection fast neutrons and photonsfrom fission requires particle interactions in each history be described as closely possible. The MCNP-PoliMi 1 code has been developed from standard MCNP to simulate neutron–nucleus interaction aspossible.Inparticular,neutroninteractionandphotonproductionaremadecorrelatedandcorrectneutronandphotonfission multiplicities have implemented. output consists relevant information about collision, forexample type collision target, energy deposited, position interaction. A post-processing also can tailored model specific detector characteristics. These featuresmake a versatile tool processes. application theMCNP-PoliMi neutron gamma ray plastic scintillator is presented.r 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
