Description
The TRIUMF Japanese-Canadian UCN Collaboration is planning a next-generation
ultracold-neutron source. To maximize the number of ultracold neutrons
available to experiments, Monte Carlo simulations of neutrons
over a wide energy range are needed. Additionally, heat deposit due to
neutron scattering, neutron capture, and gamma radiation is an important
design parameter.
This presentation will show how we use simulation tools like Fluka,
MCNP, and PENTrack to optimize the combination of neutron moderators and
the geometry of the source.
