# MGXS Part I: Introduction¶

mgxs-part-i

This IPython Notebook introduces the use of the openmc.mgxs module to calculate multi-group cross sections for an infinite homogeneous medium. In particular, this Notebook introduces the the following features:

• General equations for scalar-flux averaged multi-group cross sections
• Creation of multi-group cross sections for an infinite homogeneous medium
• Use of tally arithmetic to manipulate multi-group cross sections

## Introduction to Multi-Group Cross Sections (MGXS)¶

Many Monte Carlo particle transport codes, including OpenMC, use continuous-energy nuclear cross section data. However, most deterministic neutron transport codes use multi-group cross sections defined over discretized energy bins or energy groups. An example of U-235's continuous-energy fission cross section along with a 16-group cross section computed for a light water reactor spectrum is displayed below.

A variety of tools employing different methodologies have been developed over the years to compute multi-group cross sections for certain applications, including NJOY (LANL), MC$^2$-3 (ANL), and Serpent (VTT). The openmc.mgxs Python module is designed to leverage OpenMC's tally system to calculate multi-group cross sections with arbitrary energy discretizations for fine-mesh heterogeneous deterministic neutron transport applications.

Before proceeding to illustrate how one may use the openmc.mgxs module, it is worthwhile to define the general equations used to calculate multi-group cross sections. This is only intended as a brief overview of the methodology used by openmc.mgxs - we refer the interested reader to the large body of literature on the subject for a more comprehensive understanding of this complex topic.

### Introductory Notation¶

The continuous real-valued microscopic cross section may be denoted $\sigma_{n,x}(\mathbf{r}, E)$ for position vector $\mathbf{r}$, energy $E$, nuclide $n$ and interaction type $x$. Similarly, the scalar neutron flux may be denoted by $\Phi(\mathbf{r},E)$ for position $\mathbf{r}$ and energy $E$. Note: Although nuclear cross sections are dependent on the temperature $T$ of the interacting medium, the temperature variable is neglected here for brevity.

### Spatial and Energy Discretization¶

The energy domain for critical systems such as thermal reactors spans more than 10 orders of magnitude of neutron energies from 10$^{-5}$ - 10$^7$ eV. The multi-group approximation discretization divides this energy range into one or more energy groups. In particular, for $G$ total groups, we denote an energy group index $g$ such that $g \in \{1, 2, ..., G\}$. The energy group indices are defined such that the smaller group the higher the energy, and vice versa. The integration over neutron energies across a discrete energy group is commonly referred to as energy condensation.

Multi-group cross sections are computed for discretized spatial zones in the geometry of interest. The spatial zones may be defined on a structured and regular fuel assembly or pin cell mesh, an arbitrary unstructured mesh or the constructive solid geometry used by OpenMC. For a geometry with $K$ distinct spatial zones, we designate each spatial zone an index $k$ such that $k \in \{1, 2, ..., K\}$. The volume of each spatial zone is denoted by $V_{k}$. The integration over discrete spatial zones is commonly referred to as spatial homogenization.

### General Scalar-Flux Weighted MGXS¶

The multi-group cross sections computed by openmc.mgxs are defined as a scalar flux-weighted average of the microscopic cross sections across each discrete energy group. This formulation is employed in order to preserve the reaction rates within each energy group and spatial zone. In particular, spatial homogenization and energy condensation are used to compute the general multi-group cross section $\sigma_{n,x,k,g}$ as follows:

$$\sigma_{n,x,k,g} = \frac{\int_{E_{g}}^{E_{g-1}}\mathrm{d}E'\int_{\mathbf{r} \in V_{k}}\mathrm{d}\mathbf{r}\sigma_{n,x}(\mathbf{r},E')\Phi(\mathbf{r},E')}{\int_{E_{g}}^{E_{g-1}}\mathrm{d}E'\int_{\mathbf{r} \in V_{k}}\mathrm{d}\mathbf{r}\Phi(\mathbf{r},E')}$$

This scalar flux-weighted average microscopic cross section is computed by openmc.mgxs for most multi-group cross sections, including total, absorption, and fission reaction types. These double integrals are stochastically computed with OpenMC's tally system - in particular, filters on the energy range and spatial zone (material, cell or universe) define the bounds of integration for both numerator and denominator.

### Multi-Group Scattering Matrices¶

The general multi-group cross section $\sigma_{n,x,k,g}$ is a vector of $G$ values for each energy group $g$. The equation presented above only discretizes the energy of the incoming neutron and neglects the outgoing energy of the neutron (if any). Hence, this formulation must be extended to account for the outgoing energy of neutrons in the discretized scattering matrix cross section used by deterministic neutron transport codes.

We denote the incoming and outgoing neutron energy groups as $g$ and $g'$ for the microscopic scattering matrix cross section $\sigma_{n,s}(\mathbf{r},E)$. As before, spatial homogenization and energy condensation are used to find the multi-group scattering matrix cross section $\sigma_{n,s,k,g \to g'}$ as follows:

$$\sigma_{n,s,k,g\rightarrow g'} = \frac{\int_{E_{g'}}^{E_{g'-1}}\mathrm{d}E''\int_{E_{g}}^{E_{g-1}}\mathrm{d}E'\int_{\mathbf{r} \in V_{k}}\mathrm{d}\mathbf{r}\sigma_{n,s}(\mathbf{r},E'\rightarrow E'')\Phi(\mathbf{r},E')}{\int_{E_{g}}^{E_{g-1}}\mathrm{d}E'\int_{\mathbf{r} \in V_{k}}\mathrm{d}\mathbf{r}\Phi(\mathbf{r},E')}$$

This scalar flux-weighted multi-group microscopic scattering matrix is computed using OpenMC tallies with both energy in and energy out filters.

### Multi-Group Fission Spectrum¶

The energy spectrum of neutrons emitted from fission is denoted by $\chi_{n}(\mathbf{r},E' \rightarrow E'')$ for incoming and outgoing energies $E'$ and $E''$, respectively. Unlike the multi-group cross sections $\sigma_{n,x,k,g}$ considered up to this point, the fission spectrum is a probability distribution and must sum to unity. The outgoing energy is typically much less dependent on the incoming energy for fission than for scattering interactions. As a result, it is common practice to integrate over the incoming neutron energy when computing the multi-group fission spectrum. The fission spectrum may be simplified as $\chi_{n}(\mathbf{r},E)$ with outgoing energy $E$.

Unlike the multi-group cross sections defined up to this point, the multi-group fission spectrum is weighted by the fission production rate rather than the scalar flux. This formulation is intended to preserve the total fission production rate in the multi-group deterministic calculation. In order to mathematically define the multi-group fission spectrum, we denote the microscopic fission cross section as $\sigma_{n,f}(\mathbf{r},E)$ and the average number of neutrons emitted from fission interactions with nuclide $n$ as $\nu_{n}(\mathbf{r},E)$. The multi-group fission spectrum $\chi_{n,k,g}$ is then the probability of fission neutrons emitted into energy group $g$.

Similar to before, spatial homogenization and energy condensation are used to find the multi-group fission spectrum $\chi_{n,k,g}$ as follows:

$$\chi_{n,k,g'} = \frac{\int_{E_{g'}}^{E_{g'-1}}\mathrm{d}E''\int_{0}^{\infty}\mathrm{d}E'\int_{\mathbf{r} \in V_{k}}\mathrm{d}\mathbf{r}\chi_{n}(\mathbf{r},E'\rightarrow E'')\nu_{n}(\mathbf{r},E')\sigma_{n,f}(\mathbf{r},E')\Phi(\mathbf{r},E')}{\int_{0}^{\infty}\mathrm{d}E'\int_{\mathbf{r} \in V_{k}}\mathrm{d}\mathbf{r}\nu_{n}(\mathbf{r},E')\sigma_{n,f}(\mathbf{r},E')\Phi(\mathbf{r},E')}$$

The fission production-weighted multi-group fission spectrum is computed using OpenMC tallies with both energy in and energy out filters.

This concludes our brief overview on the methodology to compute multi-group cross sections. The following sections detail more concretely how users may employ the openmc.mgxs module to power simulation workflows requiring multi-group cross sections for downstream deterministic calculations.

## Generate Input Files¶

In [2]:
%matplotlib inline
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import openmc
import openmc.mgxs as mgxs


We being by creating a material for the homogeneous medium.

In [3]:
# Instantiate a Material and register the Nuclides
inf_medium = openmc.Material(name='moderator')
inf_medium.set_density('g/cc', 5.)


With our material, we can now create a Materials object that can be exported to an actual XML file.

In [4]:
# Instantiate a Materials collection and export to XML
materials_file = openmc.Materials([inf_medium])
materials_file.export_to_xml()


Now let's move on to the geometry. This problem will be a simple square cell with reflective boundary conditions to simulate an infinite homogeneous medium. The first step is to create the outer bounding surfaces of the problem.

In [5]:
# Instantiate boundary Planes
min_x = openmc.XPlane(boundary_type='reflective', x0=-0.63)
max_x = openmc.XPlane(boundary_type='reflective', x0=0.63)
min_y = openmc.YPlane(boundary_type='reflective', y0=-0.63)
max_y = openmc.YPlane(boundary_type='reflective', y0=0.63)


With the surfaces defined, we can now create a cell that is defined by intersections of half-spaces created by the surfaces.

In [6]:
# Instantiate a Cell
cell = openmc.Cell(cell_id=1, name='cell')

# Register bounding Surfaces with the Cell
cell.region = +min_x & -max_x & +min_y & -max_y

# Fill the Cell with the Material
cell.fill = inf_medium


OpenMC requires that there is a "root" universe. Let us create a root universe and add our square cell to it.

In [7]:
# Create root universe
root_universe = openmc.Universe(name='root universe', cells=[cell])


We now must create a geometry that is assigned a root universe and export it to XML.

In [8]:
# Create Geometry and set root Universe
openmc_geometry = openmc.Geometry(root_universe)

# Export to "geometry.xml"
openmc_geometry.export_to_xml()


Next, we must define simulation parameters. In this case, we will use 10 inactive batches and 40 active batches each with 2500 particles.

In [9]:
# OpenMC simulation parameters
batches = 50
inactive = 10
particles = 2500

# Instantiate a Settings object
settings_file = openmc.Settings()
settings_file.batches = batches
settings_file.inactive = inactive
settings_file.particles = particles
settings_file.output = {'tallies': True}

# Create an initial uniform spatial source distribution over fissionable zones
bounds = [-0.63, -0.63, -0.63, 0.63, 0.63, 0.63]
uniform_dist = openmc.stats.Box(bounds[:3], bounds[3:], only_fissionable=True)
settings_file.source = openmc.Source(space=uniform_dist)

# Export to "settings.xml"
settings_file.export_to_xml()


Now we are ready to generate multi-group cross sections! First, let's define a 2-group structure using the built-in EnergyGroups class.

In [10]:
# Instantiate a 2-group EnergyGroups object
groups = mgxs.EnergyGroups()
groups.group_edges = np.array([0., 0.625, 20.0e6])


We can now use the EnergyGroups object, along with our previously created materials and geometry, to instantiate some MGXS objects from the openmc.mgxs module. In particular, the following are subclasses of the generic and abstract MGXS class:

• TotalXS
• TransportXS
• AbsorptionXS
• CaptureXS
• FissionXS
• KappaFissionXS
• ScatterXS
• ScatterMatrixXS
• Chi
• ChiPrompt
• InverseVelocity
• PromptNuFissionXS

Of course, we are aware that the fission cross section (FissionXS) can sometimes be paired with the fission neutron multiplication to become $\nu\sigma_f$. This can be accomodated in to the FissionXS class by setting the nu parameter to True as shown below.

Additionally, scattering reactions (like (n,2n)) can also be defined to take in to account the neutron multiplication to become $\nu\sigma_s$. This can be accomodated in the the transport (TransportXS), scattering (ScatterXS), and scattering-matrix (ScatterMatrixXS) cross sections types by setting the nu parameter to True as shown below.

These classes provide us with an interface to generate the tally inputs as well as perform post-processing of OpenMC's tally data to compute the respective multi-group cross sections. In this case, let's create the multi-group total, absorption and scattering cross sections with our 2-group structure.

In [11]:
# Instantiate a few different sections
total = mgxs.TotalXS(domain=cell, groups=groups)
absorption = mgxs.AbsorptionXS(domain=cell, groups=groups)
scattering = mgxs.ScatterXS(domain=cell, groups=groups)

# Note that if we wanted to incorporate neutron multiplication in the
# scattering cross section we would write the previous line as:
# scattering = mgxs.ScatterXS(domain=cell, groups=groups, nu=True)


Each multi-group cross section object stores its tallies in a Python dictionary called tallies. We can inspect the tallies in the dictionary for our Absorption object as follows.

In [12]:
absorption.tallies

Out[12]:
OrderedDict([('flux', Tally
ID             =	1
Name           =
Filters        =	CellFilter, EnergyFilter
Nuclides       =	total
Scores         =	['flux']
Estimator      =	tracklength), ('absorption', Tally
ID             =	2
Name           =
Filters        =	CellFilter, EnergyFilter
Nuclides       =	total
Scores         =	['absorption']
Estimator      =	tracklength)])

The Absorption object includes tracklength tallies for the 'absorption' and 'flux' scores in the 2-group structure in cell 1. Now that each MGXS object contains the tallies that it needs, we must add these tallies to a Tallies object to generate the "tallies.xml" input file for OpenMC.

In [13]:
# Instantiate an empty Tallies object
tallies_file = openmc.Tallies()

# Add total tallies to the tallies file
tallies_file += total.tallies.values()

# Add absorption tallies to the tallies file
tallies_file += absorption.tallies.values()

# Add scattering tallies to the tallies file
tallies_file += scattering.tallies.values()

# Export to "tallies.xml"
tallies_file.export_to_xml()

/home/romano/openmc/openmc/mixin.py:61: IDWarning: Another CellFilter instance already exists with id=3.
warn(msg, IDWarning)
/home/romano/openmc/openmc/mixin.py:61: IDWarning: Another EnergyFilter instance already exists with id=4.
warn(msg, IDWarning)


Now we a have a complete set of inputs, so we can go ahead and run our simulation.

In [14]:

## Tally Data Processing¶

Our simulation ran successfully and created statepoint and summary output files. We begin our analysis by instantiating a StatePoint object.

In [15]:
# Load the last statepoint file
sp = openmc.StatePoint('statepoint.50.h5')


In addition to the statepoint file, our simulation also created a summary file which encapsulates information about the materials and geometry. By default, a Summary object is automatically linked when a StatePoint is loaded. This is necessary for the openmc.mgxs module to properly process the tally data.

The statepoint is now ready to be analyzed by our multi-group cross sections. We simply have to load the tallies from the StatePoint into each object as follows and our MGXS objects will compute the cross sections for us under-the-hood.

In [16]:
# Load the tallies from the statepoint into each MGXS object


Voila! Our multi-group cross sections are now ready to rock 'n roll!

## Extracting and Storing MGXS Data¶

Let's first inspect our total cross section by printing it to the screen.

In [17]:
total.print_xs()

Multi-Group XS
Reaction Type  =	total
Domain Type    =	cell
Domain ID      =	1
Cross Sections [cm^-1]:
Group 1 [0.625      - 20000000.0eV]:	6.81e-01 +/- 2.69e-01%
Group 2 [0.0        - 0.625     eV]:	1.40e+00 +/- 5.93e-01%



Since the openmc.mgxs module uses tally arithmetic under-the-hood, the cross section is stored as a "derived" Tally object. This means that it can be queried and manipulated using all of the same methods supported for the Tally class in the OpenMC Python API. For example, we can construct a Pandas DataFrame of the multi-group cross section data.

In [18]:
df = scattering.get_pandas_dataframe()

Out[18]:
cell group in nuclide mean std. dev.
1 1 1 total 0.667787 0.001802
0 1 2 total 1.292013 0.007642

Each multi-group cross section object can be easily exported to a variety of file formats, including CSV, Excel, and LaTeX for storage or data processing.

In [19]:
absorption.export_xs_data(filename='absorption-xs', format='excel')


The following code snippet shows how to export all three MGXS to the same HDF5 binary data store.

In [20]:
total.build_hdf5_store(filename='mgxs', append=True)
absorption.build_hdf5_store(filename='mgxs', append=True)
scattering.build_hdf5_store(filename='mgxs', append=True)


## Comparing MGXS with Tally Arithmetic¶

Finally, we illustrate how one can leverage OpenMC's tally arithmetic data processing feature with MGXS objects. The openmc.mgxs module uses tally arithmetic to compute multi-group cross sections with automated uncertainty propagation. Each MGXS object includes an xs_tally attribute which is a "derived" Tally based on the tallies needed to compute the cross section type of interest. These derived tallies can be used in subsequent tally arithmetic operations. For example, we can use tally artithmetic to confirm that the TotalXS is equal to the sum of the AbsorptionXS and ScatterXS objects.

In [21]:
# Use tally arithmetic to compute the difference between the total, absorption and scattering
difference = total.xs_tally - absorption.xs_tally - scattering.xs_tally

# The difference is a derived tally which can generate Pandas DataFrames for inspection
difference.get_pandas_dataframe()

Out[21]:
cell energy low [eV] energy high [eV] nuclide score mean std. dev.
0 1 0.000 6.250000e-01 total (((total / flux) - (absorption / flux)) - (sca... -1.110223e-15 0.011292
1 1 0.625 2.000000e+07 total (((total / flux) - (absorption / flux)) - (sca... 7.771561e-16 0.002570

Similarly, we can use tally arithmetic to compute the ratio of AbsorptionXS and ScatterXS to the TotalXS.

In [22]:
# Use tally arithmetic to compute the absorption-to-total MGXS ratio
absorption_to_total = absorption.xs_tally / total.xs_tally

# The absorption-to-total ratio is a derived tally which can generate Pandas DataFrames for inspection
absorption_to_total.get_pandas_dataframe()

Out[22]:
cell energy low [eV] energy high [eV] nuclide score mean std. dev.
0 1 0.000 6.250000e-01 total ((absorption / flux) / (total / flux)) 0.076115 0.000649
1 1 0.625 2.000000e+07 total ((absorption / flux) / (total / flux)) 0.019263 0.000095
In [23]:
# Use tally arithmetic to compute the scattering-to-total MGXS ratio
scattering_to_total = scattering.xs_tally / total.xs_tally

# The scattering-to-total ratio is a derived tally which can generate Pandas DataFrames for inspection
scattering_to_total.get_pandas_dataframe()

Out[23]:
cell energy low [eV] energy high [eV] nuclide score mean std. dev.
0 1 0.000 6.250000e-01 total ((scatter / flux) / (total / flux)) 0.923885 0.007736
1 1 0.625 2.000000e+07 total ((scatter / flux) / (total / flux)) 0.980737 0.003737

Lastly, we sum the derived scatter-to-total and absorption-to-total ratios to confirm that they sum to unity.

In [24]:
# Use tally arithmetic to ensure that the absorption- and scattering-to-total MGXS ratios sum to unity
sum_ratio = absorption_to_total + scattering_to_total

# The sum ratio is a derived tally which can generate Pandas DataFrames for inspection
sum_ratio.get_pandas_dataframe()
