random walk

This simulation is a quick calculation used to determine the impact on stored UCN counts caused by a thin aluminum window in the region of the polarizing magnet for the Los Alamos neutron electric dipole moment experiment.

A description of the methodology used is found in the "Monte Carlo simulations of UCN transport and spin transport" chapter in this thesis.

Getting started

cmake .
make

Dependencies: Boost C++ libraries, HDF5

Once the executable is built, run

./randomWalk_t.x --help

to see available parameter options

Utility scripts

parallel.py: Uses GNU parallel to run multiple random walks together

parse.py: Parse and plot the results of a *.h5 file
