Coupled multi-group neutron photon transport for the simulation of high-resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy applications

The accurate and efficient simulation of coupled neutron-photon problems is necessary for several important radiation detection applications. Examples include the detection of nuclear threats concealed in cargo containers and prompt gamma neutron activation analysis for nondestructive determination...
