Cross-section sensitivities calculated with one- and two-dimensional models of a fusion reactor shielding experiment are compared. The effectiveness of the two-dimensional calculation in accurately modeling the experiment and detector configurations is demonstrated. At the same time, the validity of a one-dimensional sensitivity study is also demonstrated.
