Abstract

The ORIGEN package serves as the core depletion and decay calculation module within the SCALE code system. A recent major refactor to the ORIGEN code architecture as part of an overall modernization of the SCALE code system has both greatly enhanced its maintainability as well as afforded several new capabilities useful for incorporating depletion analysis into other code frameworks. This paper will present an overview of the improved ORIGEN code architecture (including the methods and datastructures introduced) as well as current and potential future applications utilizing the new ORIGEN framework.
