Abstract
Sweeping is a commonly used procedure to explicitly solve the discrete ordinates equation, which itself is a common approximation of the neutron transport equation. To sweep through the computational domain, an ordering of the spatial cells is required that obeys the flow of information. We show that this ordering can always be found, assuming a discretization of the spatial domain with regular triangles with no hanging nodes.
