Abstract The main purpose of this work is to study the possibility of using the few-group approximation for calculation of some neutron-physical characteristics of VVER-1000 core by means of special version of MCU code. The Monte-Carlo method for VVER-1000 core neutron-physical characteristics calculation using the few-group approximation with an estimate of neutron cross sections “by location“ was provided and tested in this research. The reduction of calculation time due to the transition from a pointwise model of representation of cross sections to the few-group approximation and methodical error of this approach were evaluated. Optimal number of energy groups was determined. It was found that consideration of the scattering anisotropy leads to a significant decrease in methodical error. Ways of further reduction of methodical error were worked out.

Abstract In this work, the Klein–Nishina (K–N) approach was used to evaluate the electronic, atomic, and energy-transfer cross sections of four elements, namely, zinc (Zn), tellurium (Te), barium (Ba), and bismuth (Bi), for different photon energies (0.662 MeV, 0.835 MeV, 1.170 MeV, 1.330 MeV, and 1.600 MeV). The obtained results were compared with the Monte Carlo method (Geant4 simulation) in terms of mass attenuation and mass energy-transfer coefficients. The results show that the K–N approach and Geant4 simulations are in good agreement for the entire energy range considered. As the photon energy increased from 0.662 MeV to 1.600 MeV, the values of the energy-transfer cross sections decreased from 81.135 cm2 to 69.184 cm2 in the case of Bi, from 50.832 cm2 to 43.344 cm2 for Te, from 54.742 cm2 to 46.678 cm2 for Ba, and from 29.326 cm2 to 25.006 cm2 for Zn. The obtained results and the detailed information of the attenuation properties for the studied elements would be helpful in developing a new generation of shielding materials against gamma rays.

The Monte Carlo Method

The article has considered the calculation of the unified glare rating (UGR) based on the luminance spatial-angular distribution (LSAD). The method of local estimations of the Monte Carlo method is proposed as a method for modeling LSAD. On the basis of LSAD, it becomes possible to evaluate the quality of lighting by many criteria, including the generally accepted UGR. UGR allows preliminary assessment of the level of comfort for performing a visual task in a lighting system. A new method of "pixel-by-pixel" calculation of UGR based on LSAD is proposed.

The article is a continuation of the software research to perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) as one of the main stages in engineering seismic surveys. The article provides an overview of modern software for PSHA based on the Monte Carlo method, describes in detail the work of foreign programs OpenQuake Engine and EqHaz. A test calculation of seismic hazard was carried out to compare the functionality of domestic and foreign software.

Prediction of physicochemical and biochemical behavior of peptides is an important and attractive task of the modern natural sciences, since these substances have a key role in life processes. The Monte Carlo technique is a possible way to solve the above task. The Monte Carlo method is a tool with different applications relative to the study of peptides: (i) analysis of the 3D configurations (conformers); (ii) establishment of quantitative structure – property / activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs); and (iii) development of databases on the biopolymers. Current ideas related to application of the Monte Carlo technique for studying peptides and biopolymers have been discussed in this review.
