Any Monte Carlo transport code can produce 2D slice plots of geometric inputs using sampling of cell or material identifiers at each pixels’ point in space; ray-traced 3D plots of simulation geometries are generally less available or require paid or closed-source software. We demonstrate the ease of implementing minimalistic ray-traced visualization algorithms using only the geometric querying operations found in any Monte Carlo transport code.
