Uncertainty quantification and sensitivity studies on Thorium-fueled reactors

This paper shows how Total Monte Carlo (TMC) method and Perturbation Theory (PT) can be applied to quantify uncertainty due to nuclear data on reactor static calculations of integral parameters such as keff and βeff. This work focuses on thorium fueled reactors and it aims to rank different cross se...
