Numerical Verification/Validation of the Theory of Coupled Reactors for Deuterium Critical Assembly, using MCNP5 and Serpent Codes

Repeated the coupled-reactor verification with both MCNP5 and Serpent and found excellent agreement, establishing Serpent as valid for multipoint coupled-core calculations. Also given as a talk.
