A Cumulative migration method for computing rigorous transport cross sections and diffusion coefficients for LWR lattices with Monte Carlo

A new method for computing homogenized assembly neutron transport cross sections and diffusion coefficients that is both rigorous and computationally efficient is proposed in this paper. In the limit of a homogeneous hydrogen slab, the new method is equivalent to the long-used, and only-recently-pub...
