1, The extension of the cross section data reading module. Previously, it was compatible with those of protons, neutrons and electron-gamma shower. The current version can read cross sections of alphas, deuterons, and photo-nuclear reactions.
2, The modernization of... -

with FLUKA input files is presented. The creation of this novel tool, named
Moira, obeys two main motivations: to allow the execution of FLUKA and
Geant4 simulations using the same setup with minimal user intervention as well
as to prepare the long-term evolution of the FLUKA code, aiming to exploit
natural synergies... -

The Second Target Station (STS) at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Spallation Neutron Source is designed to become the highest peak-brightness source of cold neutrons in the world. The current conceptual design of STS consists of a segmented rotating tungsten spallation target driven by a 1.3-GeV, 700-kW short-pulsed proton beam and two coupled parahydrogen neutron moderators surrounded...

IFMIF-DONES facility is a deuterium-lithium (d+Li) neutron source driven by a deuteron accelerator (40 MeV and 125 mA) striking at the liquid Li target, and producing neutrons through stripping reactions to provide irradiation data for the construction of a DEMO fusion power plant. The shielding analyses of the accelerator and target demand efficient variance reduction (VR) technique, in...

Ion accelerators may produce intense secondary radiation fields from intended or unintended nuclear interactions of the accelerated particles with their environment. Besides interactions in the target or beam dump, some of the accelerated particles are unavoidably lost to the beam pipe and some other collided to scrapers and collimators resulting in intense neutron and gamma fields. These...
