Title: Extended model of geometrical surface splitting in Monte Carlo

Journal Article · · Nucl. Sci. Eng.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5635694

An analytic expression was derived for the second moment and average time of a model of geometrical splitting. Two limitations (among others) of the analyzed model were that particles were allowed to split only once on each surface and no Russian Roulette was applied on particles crossing a surface ''backward.'' Those serious limitations are removed.
