Description
Highly accurate critical dimensions for slabs and spheres based on a fully-coupled two-group model are presented for several data sets, covering a wide range of critical sizes. The results were obtained through application of the FN method, and verify earlier results computed from an analytical solution based on Case's method. These results should be quite useful to code developers in their own right, and this work opens the possibility of multi-group benchmark solutions in slabs, spheres, and cylinders
