Sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of βeff for MYRRHA using a Monte Carlo technique

This paper presents a nuclear data sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of the effective delayed neutron fraction βeff for critical and subcritical cores of the MYRRHA reactor using the continuous-energy Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code MCNP. The βeff sensitivities are calculated by the modifie...
