Residual entropy of ices and clathrates from Monte Carlo simulation

Journal Article Kolafa, Jiří - Journal of Chemical Physics

We calculated the residual entropy of ices (Ih, Ic, III, V, VI) and clathrates (I, II, H), assuming the same energy of all configurations satisfying the Bernal–Fowler ice rules. The Metropolis Monte Carlo simulations in the range of temperatures from infinity to a size-dependent threshold were followed by the thermodynamic integration. Convergence of the simulation and the finite-size effects were analyzed using the quasichemical approximation and the Debye–Hückel theory applied to the Bjerrum defects. The leading finite-size error terms, ln N/N, 1/N, and for the two-dimensional square ice model also 1/N{sup 3/2}, were used for an extrapolation to the thermodynamic limit.more »« less

Residual entropy of ice III from Monte Carlo simulation

Journal Article Kolafa, Jiří - Journal of Chemical Physics

We calculated the residual entropy of ice III as a function of the occupation probabilities of hydrogen positions α and β assuming equal energies of all configurations. To do this, a discrete ice model with Bjerrum defect energy penalty and harmonic terms to constrain the occupation probabilities was simulated by the Metropolis Monte Carlo method for a range of temperatures and sizes followed by thermodynamic integration and extrapolation to N = ∞. Similarly as for other ices, the residual entropies are slightly higher than the mean-field (no-loop) approximation. However, the corrections caused by fluctuation of energies of ice samples calculatedmore »« less

Monte Carlo simulation of the neutron characteristics of VVER-1000 core using the MCU-PD program and comparison of the results with calculations by the BIPR-7A program and experimental data

Journal Article Dement'ev, V G ; Oleinik, D. S., E-mail: oleynik@adis.vver.kiae.ru - Physics of Atomic Nuclei

The Monte Carlo method has been used to simulate the neutron transport in nuclear reactors for over fifty years. Fast progress in computer power and development of more and more robust and reliable algorithms, codes, and nuclear databases allow solving more challenging problems, including three-dimensional (3D) simulations of full-scale reactor cores. Short descriptions of a full-scale 3D model of the VVER-1000 core and algorithms and methods implemented in the MCU-PD and BIPR-7A codes and a comparison of the calculations by each program as well as a comparison with experimental data are given in this paper.

Performance of microchannel plate based detectors for <25 keV x rays: Monte Carlo simulations and comparisons with experimental results

Journal Article Kruschwitz, Craig A. ; Wu, Ming ; Moy, Ken - Review of Scientific Instruments

We present the results of Monte Carlo simulations of the microchannel plate (MCP) response to x rays in the 250 eV to 25 keV energy range as a function of both x-ray energy and impact angle and their comparisons with the experimental results from the X8A beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Incoming x rays interact with the lead glass of the microchannel plate, producing photoelectrons. Transport of the photoelectrons is neglected in this model, and it is assumed that photoelectrons deposit all their energy at the point they are created. This deposition leads tomore »« less
