This page lists the output parameters in the main _res.m output file.
Homogenized group constants
Group constants are calculated by first homogenizing the geometry using a multi-group structure with H energy groups. The data is then collapsed into the final few-group structure with G groups using the infinite and B1 leakage-corrected flux spectra.

Delayed neutron data
Notes:
- The output always consists of 9 values: total, followed by precursor group-wise values. If the number of groups is 6, the last two values are zero.
- The actual number of groups depends on the cross section library used in the calculations. JEFF-3.1 and later evaluations use 8 precursor groups, while earlier evaluations, as well as all ENDF/B and JENDL data is based on 6 groups.
