The OpenMC project aims to provide a fully-featured Monte Carlo particle
transport code based on modern methods. It is a constructive solid geometry,
continuous-energy transport code that uses ACE format cross sections. The
continuous-energy transport code that uses HDF5 format cross sections. The
project started under the Computational Reactor Physics Group at MIT.
