Descrizione
Monte Carlo techniques use randomness to efficiently solve a broad range of problems across applied mathematics and virtually every branch of science. They are particularly well-suited for tackling high-dimensional problems and for gaining insight into complex stochastic phenomena. In this lecture, we will explore how state-of-the-art Monte Carlo tools can be applied to simulate radiation transport, providing a foundation for developing advanced instrumentation and deepening our understanding of fundamental physical processes in high-power laser facilities. What are the typical use cases of Monte Carlo techniques? How to get started using them? What mistakes to avoid as a beginner?
