Truncating the spherical harmonics expansion of the neutron scattering source in the Boltzmann transport equation leads to truncation error. Methods for approximately correcting for this truncation error are called transport corrections. The PARTISN multigroup discrete ordinates neutron transport code has three transport correction options. These options can be specified in the SENSMG multigroup neutron sensitivity code and passed to PARTISN for the neutron transport.
