Our goal is toestablish a common set of Monte Carlo input decks, as a basis for rigorous inter-code comparison incriticality-safety. As a reference, we will use the MCNP Criticality Validation Suite: other Monte Carlodevelopers might easily join this effort in the future. For the purpose of inter-code comparison, theTRIPOLI-4® and MVP input decks have been exactly translated from those of MCNP, without anyfurther assumptions. Both TRIPOLI-4® and MVP have been run with the same ENDF/B-VII.0 evaluatednuclear data and, as far as possible, the same simulation options as in the original LANL work (sameinitial source, same number of active and discarded cycles and neutrons per cycle). %G English %2 https://cea.hal.science/cea-02489517/document %2 https://cea.hal.science/cea-02489517/file/201500000502.pdf %L cea-02489517 %U https://cea.hal.science/cea-02489517 %~ CEA %~ DEN
