CrossSections

class CrossSections(p1, p2, parent)

Reads and holds the cross sections for a choice of incident and outgoing particles

Parameters:

p1 (str) – Incident particle name according to the HDF5 file.
p2 (str) – Outgoing particle name according to the HDF5 file.
parent (XSLibrary) – The parent XSLibrary from which these cross sections are pulled.

The group within the HDF5 file describing this p1, p2

Type:: h5py.Group

scattering

The scattering cross sections in units of cm^{-1}. The list is over outgoing energy indices, while the ranks are [material, Legendre order, incident energy index]

attn

p1 = p2 only. The attenuation coefficients in units of cm^{-1}. Ranks are [material, energy index]
