Abstract :
We describe the definition of geometry models for MCNP and other Monte Carlo radiation transport codes. White Rock Science offers several computer programs that assist with the creation and modification of these models. These codes are Sabrina, Moritz, BodyBuilder, and Scan2MCNP. We review the main features and uses of these codes.
