The OpenMC Monte Carlo Code
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
OpenMC is a Monte Carlo particle transport simulation code focused on neutron
|
|
criticality calculations. It is capable of simulating 3D models based on
|
|
constructive solid geometry with second-order surfaces. OpenMC supports either
|
|
continuous-energy or multi-group transport. The continuous-energy
|
|
particle interaction data is based on ACE format cross sections, also used
|
|
in the MCNP and Serpent Monte Carlo codes.
|
|
|
|
OpenMC was originally developed by members of the `Computational Reactor Physics
|
|
Group`_ at the `Massachusetts Institute of Technology`_ starting
|
|
in 2011. Various universities, laboratories, and other organizations now
|
|
contribute to the development of OpenMC. For more information on OpenMC, feel
|
|
free to send a message to the User's Group `mailing list`_. Documentation for
|
|
the latest developmental version of the develop branch can be found on
|
|
`Read the Docs`_.
