Abstrakt: The bias in Monte Carlo calculations of the neutron-physical characteristics of full-scale models of reactors and storage sites for nuclear fuel is investigated. The bias is shown to arise directly from the nature of the Monte Carlo solution of the eigenvalue problem and estimates of similar bias without loss of generality are proposed.The bias in Monte Carlo calculations of the neutron-physical characteristics of full-scale models of reactors and storage sites for nuclear fuel is investigated.
