Abstract

Computer simulations have been applied to many isotope target design problems with mixed results. At best, computer simulations provide rapid evaluation of design alternatives with high accuracy and without the cost in time and material of ‘cut‐and‐try’ methods. However, models are only helpful when well posed, well validated, and theoretically sound. In this context, the growing availability of commercial simulation packages provides an opportunity for the development of more advanced target systems. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
