Ants may take input and give output variables and fields from or to Cerberus. Many input variables are shared with the Ants input file and some are only possible to be given via Cerberus.

Meshes
Ants input and output fields are based on a few different meshes.
Input node mesh
Calculation node mesh
Pin mesh
A two level mesh where the first level corresponds to the input node mesh, while the second level is a list of the different pins inside the input node.
Mdep mesh
A two level mesh where the first level corresponds to the calculation node mesh, while the second level is a list of the different nuclides in the calculation node.
