The MCNP4C2 Monte Carlo code was used to model the Egyptian Second research reactor in this paper, to calculate the effective multiplication factor keff, distribution of the thermal and fast neutron fluxes and power in reactor core with two type of fuels: standard and mixed. The values of the keff were 1.21842 and 1.05272, the maximum thermal flux were 2.975x10+14 and 3.352x10+14 n/cm2s, and the maximum fast flux was 2.950x10+14 and 2.389x10+14 n/cm2s for standard and mixed fuels respectively. The results showed good agreements with previous results available in the literature.

Nuclear reactors depend on nuclear fission phenomenon in their work. The effective multiplication factor depends on the number of neutrons in two successive generations and it usually controled in the reactor by using control rods. In this paper، calculations of the effective multiplication factor for the highly safe new generation VVER- 640 type reactor is conducted in two methods: analytic method using the Mathcad program and the GETERA code. The effective multiplication factor for the first method was 1.3430 and it was 1.3477 using the GETERA cod. Good agreement was noticed between the two methods.
To calculate the dose distributions of 6 MeV photon beam at variable depth in 3D water phantom the MCNP4C2 code was used, and the simulated dose profile was compared with that of the treatment planning computer system (TPS), and a good agreement w as found between them. In conclusion, the MCNP4C2 code package presents a good tool adaptable to get dose distributions for the 6MeV photon beam and it can be considered as confirmed method for patient dose calculations.
The MCNP5-beta code was used to calculate the reaction rate and the neutron energy response matrix of a neutron spectrometry consisting of a Polyethylene sphere with variable diameter and BF3 detector, using point and disk neutron sources, the reacti on rate and the response matrix of disk neutron source shows higher values than those obtained for point neutron source in addition the response with disk neutron source at the energy range shows a maximum value for sphere of 10 inch diameter where the response with point neutron source stile increasing in this condition .The results obtained in this work for the disk neutron source agreed well with published results.
This paper presents a new technique based on artificial neural networks (ANNs) to correct power factor. A synchronous motor controlled by the neural controller was used to handle the problem of reactive power compensation of the system, in order to correct power factor. In this paper, the electrical system and the neural controller were simulated using MATLAB. The results have shown that the presented technique overcomes the problems in conventional compensators (using static capacitors) such as time delay and step changes of reactive power besides to the fast compensation compared to the technique with capacitors groups.
The discount for pre-trial detention of the sentence period is a fair idea because it prevents looting freedom sentenced for a longer period of time set by virtue of a conviction, but this idea becomes more fairer if a person commits more than one offense so he stopped up at the disposal of one of them and acquitted them, while spent his conviction for another crime. This research tried to study this issue through the comparison between the Syrian and Egyptian legislation by analyzing legal texts governing it.
