Monte Carlo simulation in the reaction rate's calculation with neutron-activation method

With MCNP/4B code, the influence of cut-off energy, flux tallies, nuclear databases and perturbation on the reaction rate's calculation with neutron-activation method are analysed. When the effective reaction threshold is chosen as the cut-off energy, calculation time is considerably reduced and yet the results are not changed. Comparing calculations with cell tallies (F4) with those performed with detector tallies (F5), the counting efficiency of cell tallies is higher and the results are slightly higher, but still credible. With different nuclear databases, calculated results can be different. The perturbation among the detectors doesn't effect on the calculated results.
