Efficient use of Monte Carlo: the fast correlation coefficient

Random sampling methods are used for nuclear data (ND) uncertainty propagation, often in combination with the use of Monte Carlo codes (e.g., MCNP). One example is the Total Monte Carlo (TMC) method. The standard way to visualize and interpret ND covariances is by the use of the Pearson correlation...
