Received 16 June 1969 An extensive library of computer codes useful for radiation transport or shielding calculations is available from the Radiation Shielding Information Center at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. In addition to the point kernel, Monte Carlo, and discrete ordinates codes used for neutron and gamma-ray transport calculations, the collection includes cross-section libraries and codes for processing cross sections, calculating fission product inventories, proton penetration of spacecraft, electron-photon transport, and analyzing neutron activation detector data to determine spectra. A list of the most current codes is given and essential information for each is included.
1. Introduction The Radiation Shielding Information Center [ 1] at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, as an integral part of its information processing activities, collects, makes operable, packages, and distributes computer code packages to nuclear scientists and engineers engaged in shielding research or design. The various codes are designed for calculations related to radiation from reactors, radioisotopes, weapons and accelerators and to radiation occurring in space. The Center uses the word "package" to mean all the items needed to utilize a code effectively. The package normally includes documentation describing the theory and code operation (contributor's report plus RSIC abstract and notes) and one or more reels of tape on which is written the source program, operating (binary or hex) program, input and output for a sample problem, data libraries, and auxiliary routines. A list of the first 60 codes packaged was published in 1966 [2]. Codes collected since that time and selected ones from the previous table are given in table 1. Each is identified by a CCC (Computer Code Collection) number and by name. * Research sponsored by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission under contract with Union Carbide Corporation. The work is also supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the Defense Atomic Support Agency.
Most of the new codes are written in FORTRAN IV, which makes them nearly machine independent. Several of the packages actually represent coding systems. These are represented in the collection by prototypes, which are not necessarily useful in themselves, but which achieve generality in that they are designed to be easily changed. Such code systems are most useful to the research worker who will invest a great deal of effort in learning to use the system. The radiation treated by the majority of the codes is either neutron or gamma radiation, but some codes are for charged particles. The types of geometry treated vary widely, with a few codes allowing quite a general geometry. 2. Methods of solution for neutron and gamma-radiation transport problems The neutron and gamma-ray codes are used for nuclear reactor, shelter, radioisotope, and neutron generator shielding. The energy range considered is generally less than about 15 MeV. Most of these codes incorporate a certain way of solving the Boltzmann transport equation (or use results of such solutions). Some codes calculate dose rates while others calculate energy spectra and angular distributions as well. The most generally used methods are outlined below. For further information on these

methods, see the recently published Engineering Compendium on Radiation Shielding [3].
2.1. A ttenuation kernel integration If the dose rate at various distances from a point isotropic source is known from experiment or calculation, one can integrate over any source region to obtain the dose rate at given points [4]. That is
D(R) : f S(R')K(R',R)dR' v where V = volume containing the source D(R) = dose rate at R S(R') = source strength at R' K(R',R) = dose rate at R due to a source at R ' . Often the kernel K(R',R) is derived from infinite medium moments method results or AlbertoWelton [5] kernels based on experiment. Codes using this method are very fast (and thus are often used for parameter studies) and can give reasonably good results, especially for gamma-ray transport if the system is essentially homogeneous. In the case of neutrons, the system must also be hydrogenous. This method can account for inhomogeneities only very approximately. 2.2. Monte Carlo method The Monte Carlo [6] method is very popular, especially as a research tool, because any geometry or process can be accounted for in principle. This technique might be described as a theoretical experiment in which many particles are released from the source and their subsequent life histories traced. The main problem with this method is the difficulty of ascertaining that sufficient samples have been obtained. Often straight-forward (analog) methods will not yield sufficient sampling of histories important to the answer desired. Thus complicated importance sampling (biasing or variance reduction) techniques are introduced, but these do not necessarily succeed in improving results.
The attitude that large amounts of computer time are needed for Monte Carlo is not generally valid since the costs of most calculations are largely programming costs rather than machine costs. It is clear that Monte Carlo becomes more attractive with each generation of computers. For 3-dimensional problems, this is the only rigorous method. 2.3. Discrete ordinates method Most codes in this class are derived from the work of Carlson and associates at Los Alamos and are often called Carlson S n codes [7]. These codes were originally developed to calculate the reactivity of nuclear chain reactors, but are now being routinely applied to neutron and gamma-ray [8] shielding problems. In the general case, tire transport equation involves tile variables of position R, direction ~ , energy E, and time t, and, dependent on these, the neutron flux qS. The discrete ordinates method, which basically is a quad-rature method over ~ , is applied to the transport equation as one of several steps in the solution of that equation. More explicitly, it furnishes a means for replacing 4~by a set of functions q~m,m = 1,2 . . . . . Mn, not dependent on ~ . The ~bm ' s are the ordinates in the quadrature and n specifies the order of precision. The effect of applying the method is that an integrodifferential equation in the angular flux ¢ is transformed into a set of much simpler differential equations in tire ordinate fluxes ~bm . The energy dependence is handled by a "maltigroup" treatment. That is, cross sections averaged over an energy range, or group, must be supplied and the output directional fluxes are averaged over each group. For 1-dimensional problems, this is usually the recommended method since computer time is short even for relatively many groups and high order angular quadrature. For 2-dimensional problems, computer time is much greater and the only clear advantage over Monte Carlo is that statistical variation is avoided. Several 2dimensional codes are now available. 2.4. Spinney method The removal-diffusion method pioneered by the late K.T.Spinney [3] has been further developed along different lines by several groups. In this tech-
COMPUTER CODES nique the transport of neutrons is divided into two parts - an exponential attenuation (removal) phase for the fast neutrons and a multigroup diffusion phase for the more isotropic "diffusion" neutrons. The subsequent secondary gamma-ray transport is usually treated by a kernel method. The method has been extended to two dimensions [9]. The removal part, being a kernel method, can be easily extended to three dimensions and so the method is limited in dimensions to the diffusion theory part. 2.5. Others Other methods are presently being used successfully, especially for 1-dimensional problems, such as invariant imbedding and spherical harmonics, but these are not yet represented in the RSIC collection. The moments method, from which most buildup factors were derived, is represented in the collection but not, at present, by a modern code. There are also codes in the RSIC collection which solve the single scattering problem, integrate emerging radiation from a surface, determine fission product inventories, optimize shield weight, solve design problems of shipping casks for radioactive material, determine radioactive fallout protection factors in buildings, determine neutron spectra from activation measurements, or solve other problems connected with shielding. Codes which process nuclear cross sections for the transport codes are also being acquired and distributed by RSIC.
3. Methods of solution for charged particle transport problems The charged particle transport codes were designed to solve shielding problems connected with spacecraft design and charged particle radiation transport in simple geometries. The most powerfulmethod is Monte Carlo because it can treat secondary radiation rigorously, provided the cross sections are known. However, simpler treatments are often utilized and can be much faster, especially for complicated geometries. These generaUy involve ray-tracing and evaluate dose by using a kernel or slowing down theory (stopping power, dE/dx). The proton dose can be adequately computed by assuming that the primary particles proceed through matter straight ahead
507
[ 10-12]. Secondary particles, including cascade protons, cascade neutrons, and evaporation neutrons are treated in an approximate way. That is, the highenergy "cascade" particles from non-elastic collisions are emitted in the same direction as the incident particle (straight ahead) and lower-energy secondary particles are produced isotropically. Some of the codes useful for space shielding studies determine the primary radiation incident on earth-orbiting vehicles by taking into account such things as the trajectory, radiation belts, and the geomagnetic storm associated with a solar flare.
4. General The Center attempts to maintain the most up-todate version of each code in the collection. If errors are corrected or improvements made by the contributor, the changes are incorporated in the code and announced in the Center's monthly newsletter. In general each program is written for a certain purpose and with certain assumptions. Hence there is seldom an attempt at intercomparison by running all codes on a given problem, but rather the Center will recommend particular codes best suited to a requester's purposes. When comparisons are made by the Center, the emphasis is on method comparison. In this procedure, one or two of the most suitable codes are selected that represent each particular method, and the results are compared. RSICcooperates with other information analysis and computer code centers, such as the Argonne Code Center at Argonne National Laboratory, Illinois, and the ENEA Computer Programme Library, at Ispra, Italy. Shielding codes collected at the latter library are also available at RSIC, and European requesters obtain RSIC codes through ENEA-CPL. More detailed information on the codes listed here is available in ref. [13].
