• Identify the main sources of uncertainties in a neutronic calculation (deterministic or probabilistic).

The course is presented by three Senior Exports of the CEA involded for many decades in developing calculation schemes for fast and thermal reactor cores.

- Chain reaction and neutron balance.
- Transport equation and calculation schemes.
- Solving the steady-state integro-differential transport equation.
- Neutron slowing-down and resonance absorption.
- Verification & Validation of neutronics code packages.

- The Monte Carlo method.
- Monte Carlo techniques.

- Monte Carlo codes.
- Monte Carlo/Deterministic coupling and benchmarking.
