Monte Carlo Calculations of Neutron Pentration through Graphite and Polyethylene at Energies of 30 and 45 MeV

Abstract

A new Monte Carlo code was developed to calculate neutron penetration through graphite and hydrocarbon. The accuracy of the code was checked with the experimental values. Attenuation profiles of 30 and 45 MeV monoenergetic neutrons through graphite and polyethylene slabs were obtained by the Monte Carlo calculation. Macroscopic removal cross sections were calculated from the profiles
