TEST (Transport Equation Solver in Torino)

This is a suite of functions and procedures to solve 1D neutron transport equation in simple yet physically significant cases. TEST can be profitably used both as a test bench for different computational methods and a tool for approximated neutron transport calculations.

Basic features

1. Multi-layer slab geometry;
2. Multi-group energy approximation;
3. PN and diffusion angular approximations;
4. Higher-order harmonics for different eigenvalue problems (criticality, collision, time...);
5. Perturbative calculations (GPT method);
