Abstract

There are many radiation transport simulation codes using Monte Carlo method in the world nowaday. These codes have many applications such as: dose calculation, investigating radiation detection efficiency, designing radiation shielding, . . . However, these codes are too expensive or too difficult to be applied in many different specific purposes. In this work, we built a radiation transport simulation program based on Monte Carlo method using C++ programing language with the purpose of fast calculation and easy to use. The simulation results of this program show a good agreement in compared to MCNP results.
