Abstract
This collection of special sessions will consist of several parts, with presentations on recent developments in fission physics theory, new code capabilities, experimental work, and nuclear nonproliferation and safeguards applications of interest under development at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), and University of Michigan (UM). Part I consists of A) introduction and motivation of recent research and development efforts, B) correlated fission physics theory and code capabilities in CGMF and FREYA, and C) differential experimental work to support and validate the physics of fission. Part II consists of A) MCNP6.2 analog transport input options and outputs, B) DRiFT detector response functions toolkit capabilities, and C) nuclear nonproliferation applications and experiments.
