Abstract
PSG (Probabilistic Scattering Game) is a new Monte Carlo
neutron transport code, developed at the VTT Technical
Research Centre of Finland. The code is specifically
designed for reactor physics applications, particularly
at the fuel assembly level. Group constant generation for
deterministic reactor simulator codes is considered as
one of the main motivations for PSG development. This
paper presents an overview of the main features of PSG,
together with some typical results.
