Epoxy-B4C, 10B/B: 99 at% (50 wt% epoxy + 50 wt% B4C), a two-dimensional comparison between calculation and simulation. The transmission and albedo comparisons are shown in the left and right plot, respectively. The comparison is done for all combinations of 20 energies and 20 thicknesses evenly spread across the energy and thickness region under investigation. The color shows the ratio between calculation and simulation. In order to only display data with a low statistical uncertainty, simulation values below \(1\text{e}{-}5\) are not included in the analysis. The calculated iso-line for \(1\text{e}{-}5\) transmission is presented in black in the left plot
