Ants is a reduced order neutronics solver module for the Kraken framework. Ants is a part of the two step calculation chain requiring homogenized group constants as input data.

Ants is currently capable of solving the three dimensional steady state multigroup neutron diffusion equation in rectangular, hexagonal or triangular prism geometries using either effective multiplication factor or boron concentration as an eigenvalue. The geometry input is always either rectangular or hexagonal. The three dimensional time-dependent multigroup neutron diffusion equation and burnup calculations can be solved together with Cerberus.

The main input file and some group constant input files are described in the input manual. Information on setting Cerberus input and output variables and fields are provided in the Cerberus input/output manual. Some information for developers is described in the developer manual.
