ITS5 theory manual.
This document describes the modeling of the physics (and eventually features) in the Integrated TIGER Series (ITS) codes [Franke 04] which is largely pulled from various sources in the open literature (especially [Seltzer 88], [Seltzer 91], [Lorence 89], [Halbleib 92]), although those sources often describe the ETRAN Code from which the physics engine of ITS is derived, not necessarily identical. This is meant to be an evolving document, with more coverage and detail as time goes on. As such, entire sections are still incomplete. Presently, this document covers the continuous-energy ITS codes with more completeness on photon transport (though electron transport will not be completely ignored). In particular, this document does not cover the Multigroup code, MCODES (externally applied electromagnetic fields), or high-energy phenomena (photon pair-production). In this version, equations are largely left to the references though they may be pulled in over time.
