Charged Particle Transport in LUMOS

Charged particle physics, implicit Monte Carlo (IMC) radiation transport, and Sn radiation transport were recently added to the code LUMOS developed by the Lagrangian Applications Project at Los Alamos National Laboratory. This advancement is part of an effort to increase LUMOS’s applicability across a wide variety of problems of interest to the Laboratory including application to inertial confinement fusion (ICF). ICF implosion physics is of interest to the Lagrangian Applications Project because 1) ICF fusion research is a critical mission driver at the laboratory and 2) ICF fusion is a key research area for students and new staff members during the on-boarding process.

Charged Particle Transport Libraries (Final Report FY2020 Level-2 Milestone #7127)

This document is the final report on the status and developments of the Charged-Particle Transport (CPT) Level-2 (“CP2020”) ASC/PEM Milestone work. This section gives an overview of the CP2020 work partitioned into two subsections: 1) a summary of the code tools used for generating CP (and other) data in Section 1.2; and 2) and library data and codes access information for end users in Section 1.3. Section 2 gives an overview of the status of previous work on charged-particle (CP) nuclear data, particularly focused on the work of the FY2011 CP Level-2 Milestone. New work for CP2020 is detailed in the following Section 3. Section 4 discusses testing and validation of the evaluated and processed data for the CP2020 library. Conclusions based on the experience of this Level-2 work and the outlook for future development of CPT-relevant data are given in the final Section 5. Appendices, detailed throughout the report, are provided for further information. This report, related documentation, codes, and the CPT nuclear data libraries are available via online repository.
