The ITS system of linear, time-independent coupled electron/photon Monte Carlo transport codes is a group of multimaterial, multidimensional codes designed to provide an accurate description of the production and transport of the electron/photon cascade, with or without the presence of macroscopic electric and magnetic fields. It is based primarily on the ETRAN system, which combines microscopic photon transport with a macroscopic random walk for electron transport. Emphasis is on simplicity of application without sacrificing sophistication of the physical model. Flexibility of construction permits the user to tailor the codes to specific applications and to extend the capabilities of the codes to more complex applications.
