Kentucky disburses $10M in nuclear grants
The Kentucky Nuclear Energy Development Authority (KNEDA) recently distributed its first awards through the new Nuclear Energy Development Grant Program, which was established last year. In total, KNEDA disbursed $10 million to a variety of companies that will use the funding to support siting studies, enrichment supply-chain planning, workforce training, and curriculum development.

This workshop will demonstrate a new tool for use with the MCNP(TM) radiation transport code tool known as p-study. The p-study tool effectively does total Monte Carlo by perturbing all physical configuration values accessible from the input stack and allows these to be propagated into a comprehensive tally uncertainty in the end. Specifically this workshop will serve as a tutorial on a new Operational MCNP GUI (OMG) that allows users to generate and run p-study to conduct this total Monte Carlo on their input stacks. Attendees are recommended to have MCNP6.2 installed on their laptop if they want to download the GUI and follow along in the tutorial, otherwise attendees can just observe. The workshop will start with a brief statistics review sufficient to understand p-study and will assume attendees have at least some familiarity with the MCNP code.
