How to record source from criticality model and use it for shielding and activation

[David Holler]

Hi all,

Apologies if I missed this topic somewhere. I'd like to run a criticality model in CSAS, record the source rate and distribution, then use it in MAVRIC and ORIGEN models for shielding and activation. 

I understand the source definition cards in MAVRIC and ORIGEN, but I was wondering if anyone could help me better understand passing a tally from CSAS to a MAVRIC / ORIGEN source. I'm assuming SCALE can record a 3D neutron source tally, but can that tally be stored in a file for use by MAVRIC or ORIGEN? 

Thank you for your time.
