How can i detect the thermal neutron, E = 0.025 Ev, by MCNP using CUToff Or PHYS:N cards?
No, the energy bins will be below the energy cutoff. 0.025 ev will not be detected. The cutoff or phys:n must be in the input file to handle the low energy bin E= 0.025evAlex A said:Unless there is a specific reason not to, I'd use an energy bin card for the tally. For example,
F4:n 3
e4 5e-7 0.1 3 $ Energy bins
Results in 3 tallies for cell 3, everything under half an eV, everything between half an eV and 0.1MeV and everything between 0.1 and 3 MeV.
Don't expect any neutrons at exactly 0.025 of course, it's a distribution, so take the range you are calling thermal neutrons and put them into the energy bins.
