MONTE CARLO METHODS AND THEIR APPLICATION TO NEUTRON TRANSPORT PROBLEMS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4204567
Application of Monte Carlo methods to neutron transport phenomena is considered. An attempt is made to present the theory as a rigorous mathematical discipline, using the language of probability theory and mathematical statistics. No claim is made for either basic originality or completeness in the treatment. In the first part the mathematical foundations of the theory are established, and in the second part applications of the theory to neutron transport problems are discussed. (W.D.M)
