[en] The state-of-the-art regarding the predicting capabilities of some of the physics models available in MCNPX for Accelerator-Driven System design is discussed. The identified remaining deficiencies, which originate either from a lack of experimental data or from not well understood physics mechanisms, are stressed. To solve these problems, more constraining experiments are now needed to allow a deeper understanding of the reaction mechanisms. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
