Monte Carlo simulations of amphiphilic systems.
Results are presented from NVT Monte Carlo simulations of a three-dimensional lattice model of a binary mixture of solvent and surfactant chains in which free self assembly is allowed. It is demonstrated that the model exhibits a critical micelle concentration together with cluster size …

Monte Carlo simulations for heavy ion dosimetry
… 50 to 450 MeV/u have been performed using the Monte Carlo technique. To simulate the transport of a particle in water the computer code SHIELD-HIT v2 was used which is a substantially modified version of its predecessor SHIELD-HIT v1. The code was partially rewritten, replacing formerly used …

Monte Carlo simulations of hard QCD radiation
Monte Carlo event generators, such as Herwig++, provide a full simulation of events at collider experiments. They give a fully exclusive description of hadronic final states and are therefore crucial tools for the planning of future experiments and analysing of data from existing experiments. The …

Monte-Carlo simulations of globular cluster dynamics
… methods, now allow us to perform dynamical simulations of globular cluster evolution using a realistic number of stars (N - 10 - 106) and taking into account the full range of relevant stellar dynamical and stellar evolutionary processes. These processes include two-body gravitational …

Monte Carlo Simulations on Resistive Switching Memristor Modeling
… Using the inverse sampling method and Monte Carlo simulations, the variation in switching characteristics for these memristors are characterized by a phenomenological approach. Further, randomness is introduced to assess the effect of geometric parameters in a probabilistic model and …

Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of electrons and holes
… systems of electrons and holes with quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) techniques, covering three related areas: (1) elastic scattering of excitons, (2) thermodynamics of electron-hole plasmas, and (3) electrons confined in a quantum dot. Excitons are bound states of an electron and a hole, and obey …

Monte Carlo simulations using infrared improved DGLAP-CS theory.
… such as single Z and W production, more precise Monte Carlos need to be developed. As a step towards this goal a new set of infrared (ir) improved DGLAP-CS kernels was developed by Ward. For this work we implemented these infrared improved kernels in HERWIG6.5 to create a new program HERWIRI1.0. …

Self-consistent Monte Carlo simulations of plasma processing reactors
… be considered. In this thesis, a self-consistent Monte Carlo (MC) simulation for low-temperature partially ionized plasmas is presented. In this simulation, the effects of electron-electron collisions are taken into account. Electron-electron collisions are treated as being functionally equivalent …

Enhancement of Monte Carlo Simulations on Three-Dimensional Nanoscale Semiconductor Devices
A full-band 3D Monte Carlo semiconductor simulator is enhanced in two ways in order to capture realistic transport properties in nanoscale device simulations. First of all, the phonon-limited multisubband scattering mechanisms have been incorporated into the 3D Monte Carlo simulator. The scattering …
