Keywords:
radiation transport, applied physics, radiation transport, monte carlo method, variance reduction, high performance computation


Abstract:
Particle transport is important for radiation dose calculation for the radiation workers. These simulations are typically called deep penetration problems. With extremely low sampling probability, expensive computational resources is required. To solve the problem, variance reduction technique is required. In this talk, traditional and new variance reduction approaches will be presented. Sample problem from real world will be used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithms.
