The La Alamcm Radiation 'IY~sport Code System (LARTCS) coneiatrr of stateof-th~art Monte Carlo and discrete ordinatee transport codes and data libraries, The general-purpose continuou~energy Monte Carlo code MCNP (Monte @lo Neutron~hoton), part of the LARTCS, provides a computational predictive capability for many applications of interest to the nuc!ear well logging community. The generalized three-dimensional geometry of h4CN P ia well suited for bor ehole-tool modelm SA B-RINA, another component of the LARTCS, ia a graphite code that can be ueed to interactively create a complex MCNP geometry. Uaera can define many source and tally characteriotica with standard MCNP feature. The time dependent capability of the code is e-ntid wher modeling puloed aourcea, Problems with neutrons, photons, and electrons aa either single particle or coupled particles can be calculated with MCNP, The phycico of neutron and photon transport and interaction is rrmleled in detail using the lateot available crew-bection data, A rich collection of variance reduction featur~can greatly increase the etllciency of a calculation. MCNP u written in FOR TRAN 77 and haa been run m a variety of computer OY* term from scientific workstation to supercomputera. The next production veraicm of MCNP will include features such M continuou-energy electron transport bnd a multitasking option. Arema of ongoing reaesrch of interest to the well logging community include angJe bitwng, adaptive Monte Carle, improved discrete ordinatea capal)ililim, and discrete orrlinatea/Monte Carlo hybrid devebpment.
