Using Fractional Cascading to Accelerate Cross Section Lookups in Monte Carlo Neutron Transport Calculations

Using Fractional Cascading to Accelerate Cross Section Lookups in Monte Carlo Neutron Transport Calculations

We describe and test a technique for carrying out energy grid searches in continuous-energy Monte Carlo (MC) neutron transport calculations that represents an optimal compromise between grid search performance and memory footprint. The method, based on the fractional cascading technique and referred...
