TRAC-1. A MONTE CARLO PHILCO-2000 PROGRAM FOR THE CALCULATION OF NEUTRON CAPTURE PROBABILITIES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4037076

A program is described which calculates a regionwise distribution of neutron capture probabilities in a twodimensional quarter-cell by a Monte Carlo method. The program also calculates the transport theory scalar flux at a single point of the quarter-cell. As many as 75 different regions, grouped into as many as 99 different compositions, may be treated. The program operates in a one energy mode, or, on an input option, places a slowing-down region ahead of the one-energy thermal group. (auth)
