Note to recipients of the Nuclear Program Abstracts on CD-ROM
Recently we sent to you the computer program abstracts on CD-ROM, a searchable
ACCESS database for identifying computer codes carrying out specific tasks.
We have discovered that our CD-ROM reproduction unit had one faulty CD cutter
out of 4, thus 25% of the CD-ROMs we have distributed do not work. If you
have one of these and you wish to receive a working one please send an e-mail
to: mcgrath@oecd-nea.org
Integral Experiments Data Bases
The CSNI Code
Validation Matrix Separate
Effects Test Data have been extended in the following way :
New experiments:
- ACHILLES
experiment (abstract)
- THETIS
experiment (abstract)
Updated experiments:
- PDHT-HP
experiment (abstract)
CD-ROMs No.8 and 10
of the set have been modified accordingly and are available to the recipients
of the CCVM database.
Training Courses, Workshops & Tutorials (co-organised with RSICC)
The MCNP introductory training
course was held from 10-14 September 2001 at Stuttgart, Germany and was
attended by 23 participants.
For
2001, the following training courses, tutorials or code user group
meetings are proposed :
TRIPOLI-3.5 (Monte Carlo) training course (in French), (2-4 October, 2001 at NEA,
Paris),
PENELOPE-2000
(electron-photon transport) workshop
with tutorial, (5-7 November 2001, NEA, Paris),
For 2002 we plan
tentatively in addition the following training courses/workshops
SCALE
4.4A - Criticality, Shielding, Source Term (tentative)
Tutorials
on deterministic radiation transport codes (tentatively early 2002).
The intention is to present also recently developed tools for modelling
3D problems, including automated mesh generation, (X-Y-Z), (R-THETA-Z)
and the visualisation of the corresponding results to facilitate interpretation
and for improved documentation. Methods for 3D Sensitivity Analysis
/ Uncertainty Analysis should also be demonstrated. The Data Bank Executive
Group has strongly recommended the development of such tools.
Workshop on Computing
Radiation Dosimetry with embedded training course on MCNPX
- Monte Carlo Code System for Multiparticle & High Energy Applications
Instituto Tecnologico e Nuclear (ITN), Sacavem,
Lisbon, Portugal 22-28 June 2002.
During the weekend of 22-23 June a series of tutorial
lectures will be held followed by a daily tutorial lecture delivered by
a senior expert, on a subject related to the MCNPX module(s) being taught
that day.
The MCNPX specific training will be delivered during
24-28 June.
MCNP-4C
Introductory or Advanced Course
PENELOPE-2000
(electron-photon transport) workshop with tutorial, (Spring 2002, RSICC,
Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA)
AMPX-2000
Cross-Section Processing System (summer-autumn 2002), Issy-les-Moulineaux,
France.
The proposed courses, tutorials etc. will be held
depending on user interest and participation.
