Numerical quantities used by transport solvers and convergence details

Notation of array of structure indices: itime indicates a time index; i1, i2, i3, ... indicate other indices with their depth in the IDS. This notation clarifies the path of a given node, but should not be used to compare indices of different nodes (they may have different meanings).
