Download Monte Carlo Methods for Particle Transport by Alireza Haghighat PDF

By Alireza Haghighat

The Monte Carlo strategy has develop into the de facto common in radiation delivery. even though strong, if now not understood and used accurately, the strategy can provide deceptive effects.


Monte Carlo equipment for Particle Transport teaches applicable use of the Monte Carlo procedure, explaining the method’s basic strategies in addition to its boundaries. Concise but entire, this well-organized text:



  • Introduces the particle value equation and its use for variance reduction

  • Describes basic and particle-transport-specific variance relief techniques

  • Presents particle shipping eigenvalue matters and methodologies to handle those issues

  • Explores complicated formulations in line with the author’s learn activities

  • Discusses parallel processing suggestions and components affecting parallel performance

Featuring illustrative examples, mathematical derivations, desktop algorithms, and homework difficulties, Monte Carlo tools for Particle delivery provides nuclear engineers and scientists with a pragmatic consultant to the appliance of the Monte Carlo method.

The Discovery of Isotopes: A Complete Compilation

This ebook describes the fascinating discovery of each isotope saw on the earth so far, which at present numbers a few 3000. The discoveries are prepared in chapters in keeping with the statement strategies or creation equipment. each one bankruptcy includes tables directory the 1st authors of the 1st book in addition to information about the construction and detection equipment used.

Study of Quark Gluon Plasma By Particle Correlations in Heavy Ion Collisions (Springer Theses)

This thesis covers numerous vital subject matters appropriate to our figuring out of quark-gluon plasma. It describes dimension of the third-order harmonic circulation utilizing two-particle correlations and isolation of circulate and non-flow contributions to particle correlations in gold-gold collisions. The paintings additionally investigates long-range longitudinal correlations in small platforms of deuteron-gold collisions.

The Anomalous Magnetic Moment of the Muon (Springer Tracts in Modern Physics)

This learn monograph covers broadly the idea of the muon anomalous magnetic second and gives estimates of the theoretical uncertainties. The muon anomalous magnetic second is among the such a lot accurately measured amounts in basic particle physics and gives the most stringent exams of relativistic quantum box conception as a primary theoretical framework.
