Abstract
A complex of computer programmes called MULGA is described which will produce multigroup cross sections in a format suitable for input into a selection of reactor codes. Always bearing in mind that the spatial variation of flux will frustrate any determination of "exact" cross sections the maximum accuracy has been striven for within the limitations of urgency and feasibility. The programmes; together with an associated microscopic data library tape, and a specialised monitor system, have been coded for an IBM 1620 computer with 4 magnetic tapes. The basic programmes MULGA 1 and MULGA 2 have already been adapted for an ISM 7090 and the whole series will be modified for the new site computer in 1964.
