Abstract

TSURFER, a generalized linear least-squares (GLLS) code, is a new module of the SCALE system. After a short introduction outlining the history and applications of the GLLS methodology in reactor physics, a new application of the GLLS methodology in criticality safety is discussed. Some characteristic TSURFER input data are discussed in detail.
