Fractal Abstract Fractal Art: This is cool! We think math should be pretty also (even if it is not created with the Visual Editor).  To see some art created from fractals, see this website by Jess Merkley.  http://fractalabstract.com/index.html  We thought you might like his work also.

 

The MCNP Visual Editor is a graphical user interface for the MCNP Computer code.  It is packaged with the MCNP5/MCNPX computer code, distributed internationally through the Nuclear Energy Agency in France and nationally though the Radiation Safety Information Computational Center in Oak Ridge.

 

The Visual Editor has powerful display capabilities including the ability to display multiple cross-sectional views of the geometry with optional displays of the geometry in 3D using either wire mesh or ray tracing.  Additional capabilities include plotting of the source and the display of particle tracks during the random walks. 

 

The Visual Editor also includes geometry creation capabilities that allow the user to create MCNP geometries directly from the plot window using the mouse.  These capabilities allow the MCNP programmer the tools to quickly create complex geometries and display important features of the transport process.

 

To learn about all the capabilities of the Visual Editor, attend one of the upcoming classes:
