abstract = "This paper presents algorithms of exponential transformation (biasing) and its randomized modification with branching of a Markov chain trajectory for solving problems of gamma-ray transport in an inhomogeneous medium. The algorithms are applied to the maximum (majorant) cross-section method (Woodcock tracking), which is efficient for simulation in an inhomogeneous medium. Using, as an example, gamma-ray transport through a thick water slab containing a random number of air or Al balls, a numerical study of the above algorithms in comparison with the standard simulation algorithm is performed.",
