  4. Abstract:
  5. Pulsed neutron decay simulation of BeO moderator as a result of injecting 14 MeV neutron pulses into finite size systems are carried out with the MCNP Monte Carlo code. The simulated decay constants as compared against a previous experimental work showed variations of about 2%. The resulting decay constants and the fitted diffusion coefficients based on the simulation results are found to agree with the experimental results within a margin of about 4%. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
