Abstract

The MARS15 multi-purpose Monte-Carlo code is Fermilab’s particle-matter interaction code that supports the lab’s projects along with numerous accelerator facilities in the country and abroad at all stages, from planning and design to operations and...

59. Composite Models in the MARS15 Code

4. Code status, advances, and model converters

Oral

Studies of the physical phenomena resulting from interactions of intense high-energy beams with matter require – in some cases - the use of models complementary to those used in the MARS15 Monte Carlo code.
An example of such a kind is heating of a target and other accelerator and experiment components by the beam pulses followed by relaxation of the temperature field between the pulses....

61. FLUKA: status and perspectives

Alfredo Ferrari (Fluka Collaboration)

4. Code status, advances, and model converters

Oral

The present status of the authentic FLUKA code will be presented with particular emphasis to developments and features added in the last couple of years.

High-energy FLUKA’s model have been deeply revised in order to improve predictions, and to better match experimental data on the production of intermediate hadronic resonances, data which show a picture rather different from the one usually...

62. The FLUKA group- and pointwise neutron treatment

4. Code status, advances, and model converters

Oral

The low energy neutron treatment in the authentic FLUKA code has been greatly expanded over the last couple of years.

Until recently, the treatment of neutrons below 20 MeV was based on a 260-group library built with NJOY99 (plus ad-hoc extensions) and to various degrees based on ENDF/B-VIR8, ENDF/B-VIIR0-1, and JEFF-3.2. New evaluations are now available which contain more isotopes, more...

37. FLUKA status and perspectives

Francesco Cerutti (CERN)

4. Code status, advances, and model converters

Oral

This contribution summarizes several physics improvements recently implemented in the FLUKA code, as distributed by the FLUKA.CERN Collaboration under new licensing conditions. This follows a new agreement between CERN and INFN (as FLUKA copyrights holders) to prepare the future of FLUKA, drawing on lessons learned and current standards in the organization of software collaborations. Its goal...
