Monte Carlo power iteration: Entropy and spatial correlations

Monte Carlo power iteration: Entropy and spatial correlations

The behavior of Monte Carlo criticality simulations is often assessed by examining the convergence of the so-called entropy function. In this work, we shall show that the entropy function may lead to a misleading interpretation, and that potential issues occur when spatial correlations induced by fi...
