## Validation and Verification
With any large scale code, it is important to ensure that the physics modeling is being performed correctly. This is usually done by comparison of results to experimentally known values. As a first step, we would like to build all 119 problems in the MCNP Extended Criticality Benchmark Suite as well as a few other important benchmark models.
## Generation of ENDF/B-VII.1 Cross Sections
Currently, we rely on cross sections distributed with MCNP or SERPENT. It would be nice to generate our own cross section set using NJOY with the latest ENDF/B-VII.1 data.
## Calculation of Kinetics Parameters
Many users need the capability to calculate the effective delayed neutron fraction and the mean generation time, two important parameters in kinetics. This project will involve implementing a method to calculate these parameters.
