Nodal finite element approximations for the neutron transport equation

Two classes of nodal methods, weakly and strongly discontinuous, are introduced and applied to the numerical solution of the neutron transport equation in two-dimensional Cartesian geometry and discrete ordinates. These methods are then applied for the approximation of the solution of a reference problem well known in the nuclear engineering literature.
