Abstract
MCRP is a Monte Carlo computer program for tracking neutrons slowing down in single rod and rod cluster lattices. The code is intended for calculations of resonance absorption in reactor fuel nuclides using cross sections at 124 000 energy points below 20 keV. The only intrinsic assumptions are that scattering is both elastic and isotropic in the centre of mass system.
