The analysis of local structural effects in alloys using total scattering and reverse Monte Carlo techniques
… in the literature. The recent development of reverse Monte-Carlo (RMC) methods for the analysis of total scattering data has opened a promising route for the assessment of a material's local environment and has already provided important insights into a host of complex chemical systems, …

Acceleration techniques for the radiative analysis of general computational fluid dynamics solutions using reverse Monte-Carlo ray tracing
A reverse Monte-Carlo ray trace capable of performing a radiative analysis on arbitrary multiple overlapping structured computational fluid dynamics solution sets is developed. In order to make effective use of time, a method based on a set of simplifying assumptions but using the same calculation …

NMR and neutron total scattering studies of silicon-based anode materials for lithium-ion batteries
… and disordered crystalline materials. Reverse Monte Carlo is a technique for obtaining structural information from experimental data (particularly total scattering patterns) from amorphous and disordered crystalline materials. However, previously existing Reverse Monte Carlo software …

Detector simulation and WIMP search analysis for the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiment
… package collectively known as the CDMS Detector Monte Carlo (DMC). After substantial validation of the models against data, the DMC is used to investigate potential backgrounds to the next iteration of the CDMS experiment, known as SuperCDMS. Finally, an investigation of using the DMC in a …

Studies of Structural and Chemical Ordering in Metallic Liquids and Glasses Using Electrostatic Levitation
… state. Novel experimental measurements and Reverse Monte Carlo simulations of the structure of bulk glass-forming Pd<sub>82</sub>Si<sub>18</sub> liquid show a lack of acceleration in ordering, in contrast with the behavior of the widely studied Cu-Zr binary alloy liquids. Measurements of the …

Computationally Efficient Modeling of Transient Radiation in a Purely Scattering Foam Layer
… methods have been investigated. First, a reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) simulation has been developed. In the RMC simulation photon bundles are traced backwards from a detector to the source where they were emitted. The RMC method takes advantage of time reflection symmetry, allowing the …

The Local Structure of Sodium-Ion Anodes During Electrochemical Reactions
… then broken down into an amorphous phase, where reverse Monte Carlo refinements show that the predominant tin connectivity is chains. Further reaction with sodium results in structures containing Sn−-Sn dumbbells, which interconvert through a solid-solution mechanism. Finally, we show that …
