3. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION - REAC is a computer code system for fast calculation of activation and transmutation. It is used to predict transmutations in various magnetic fusion energy (MFE) test facilities and conceptual reactors. The REAC system has been used to calculate activation in FMIT and, also, to calculate solid and gaseous transmutations in various neutron environments. In April 1996, RSIC packaged REAC*3 which is very similar to REAC*2. In addition to being much more easily ported to different computer systems, the main changes to REAC*3 are:
1) the fixing of a few minor bugs (the most severe being that the time unit "d" was outputted as "h"),
2) the inclusion of the option to use inputted reaction rates in addition to those calculated from flux and cross sections,
3) the inclusion of zones,
4) the production of input to plotting programs,
5) the inclusion of filenames (including paths) up to 64 characters in length.

4. METHOD OF SOLUTION - The system consists of a driver code, cross-section libraries, flux libraries, a material, and a decay library. REAC first finds the flux for the desired facility (in the case of neutrons) or the slowing down relation (in the case of charged particles). The isotopic composition of the desired material is then determined. The desired cross-section library is searched for these isotopes, and the multigroup cross sections are folded with the multigroup flux to obtain reaction rates.
After the transmutations are calculated, REAC sorts the isotopes into elements as a transmutation file, determines the decay rate of the radioactive isotopes, finds the gamma spectra from each nucleus, and sorts the products in terms of decay rates. When the program is run for a series of time periods, the material composition is obtained for each time period from the result of the previous time period. Thus the number of isotopes included in the calculation can increase.

5. RESTRICTIONS ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROBLEM - None noted.
