List of basic materials #2

Closed trsch closed 10 years ago

trsch commented 10 years ago

Below is a list of the moderator materials I would like to have investigated: SiC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_carbide) C (graphite) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite) BeO (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryllium_oxide) ZrHx (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zirconium_hydride)

As a test case for the pstudy tools: ZrH2 is used.

Note: Eventually, we should also check impact of using kernels (and preferentially understand it)

The deck_pstudy_v3 now includes four moderators, inc. densities: C: 2.20 g/cc SiC: 3.21 g/cc BeO: 3.01 g/cc ZrH2: 5.56 g/cc

The densities are at 300 K, kernels and TMP cards are set to 1000 K. We have no kernel for SiC, graphite kernel have been used - this is something we sould be on the lookout for.

We also need to fix some moderator dependent height ranges in the pstudy deck.

Closed until more moderator candidates appear...
