Workshop on PHITS

This workshop covers the basics, advanced functions and practical applications of PHITS. The tutorial begins with sessions dedicated to definition of 3D geometry, sources and tallies including various exercises. These sessions are followed by advanced sessions on variance reduction, definition of force fields, and the CT image handling. In the latter half of the tutorial, participants can perform their own PHITS simulation under the support of tutors during the individual handson sessions. Through this tutorial, participants can learn most of the features of PHITS, from basic to advanced, using the lecture materials of the standard package and users’ own input/output files.
