“…As an alternative for the growing user community of cosmic-ray neutron sensing, we developed the Monte Carlo code URANOS (Ultra Rapid Adaptable Neutron-Only Simulation), which was specifically tailored to address open and recurring questions of the CRNS community (Köhli et al, 2015;Schrön et al, 2017;Köhli et al, 2018b;Li et al, 2019;Schattan et al, 2019;Weimar et al, 2020;Köhli et al, 2021;Badiee et al, 2021;Jakobi et al, 2021;Francke et al, 2022). As the model has evolved, it has been proven to be useful for neutron spin echo detectors as in other research fields as well (Köhli et al, 2016(Köhli et al, , 2018aKöhli and Schmoldt, 2022). URANOS is computationally very efficient as it only accounts for the most relevant neutron interaction processes, namely elastic collisions, inelastic collisions, absorption and evaporation.…”
