Looking for a review of this @makeclean? @elliottbiondo? It's part of a strategy of establishing where CNERG has unique expertise |

its ability to model the entire phase space of radiation transport (space, | ||
direction and energy) as continuous. Continuous modeling of space allows for |

as being continuous? as continuous variables?
Looks good, should we also include some figures to break up the text? |
I'll have to think about figures. It would be useful on the website, but for current purposes is not important. |

Maybe we should put most widely use for fusion analysis? I think Geant4 has more overall users

Hmmm... maybe we should say on neutron-based systems (somehow) rather than just fusion?
This depends on #4
