This repo provides Latex source for materials related to nuclear physics.

Content

Materials in this repo are related to three courses offered at MIT's nuclear science and engineering department:

  • 22.101 Applied nuclear physics: basic quantum mechanics and modern physics material, extending into nuclear structure, nucleon-nucleon scattering, radioactive decay, and neutron interactions.

  • 22.106 Neutron interactions: neutron transport theory, starting from cross-sections and R-matrix theory, and covering the differential-integral and integral form of the transport equation, Monte Carlo, CPM, MOC, SN, PN methods.

  • 22.211 Nuclear reactor physics I: slowing down equation with emphasis on resonance treatment and self-shielding treatment, spectral calculation, diffusion theory, point kinetics, nodal diffusion theory (CMFD, NEM, ANM, SANM), homogenization and de-homogenization.

Build

To build the Latex sources in this repo, you would need to git clone and build tek (https://github.com/palmer-dabbelt/tek), which is the Latex Makefile generator I use. Then run

TEXINPUTS="$(readlink -f latex)/:" tek

which generates a Makefile that points to the latex style files (latex/) used in these Latex sources.

Then run

make

Note: Latex package dependencies can be found in latex/school-style-packages.sty. The very first time you build this repo you are most likely going to get error messages of missing some packages (depending on your Latex distributions they come with a different set of random stuffs). You can fix so by installing linux distribution packages, or installing Latex distribution packages, or by going to CTAN to get the file.
