PENELOPE: A code system for Monte Carlo simulation of electron and photon transport

The NEA Data Bank was established to promote effective sharing of data and software developed in member countries in the field of nuclear technology and radiation physics applications. It operates a Computer Program Service (CPS) which collects, compiles and verifies programs in an appropriate computer environment, ensuring that the computer program package is complete and adequately documented. Thus, the CPS software library contains more than 1000 computer programs, and also includes processed nuclear data libraries, integral experiments, databases, handbooks and safety joint-project outcomes. All this content is made available to end-user on request, and in compliance with the applicable restrictions. One…
