Abstract
Interaction of high energy heavy ions with nuclear emulsion simulated using MCNPX 2.7 and its associated Monte Carlo codes. The simulations were performed for interactions of 4.1 AGeV/c 22Ne ions with nuclear emulsion event by event via batch files written for this purpose. It is shown that MCNPX correctly simulates the spallation as well as “complete destruction” interactions using the same physics principles and models. Cross-sections for interaction of 4.1 AGeV/c 22Ne ions with emulsion, Ag and Br in emulsion and rest of the nuclei in the emulsion were determined. Good agreements between calculations and experimental results were obtained.
