Abstract:This report describes an analytical method of transforming the prompt decay constants at into the static reactivity p,. It has heen developed through the use of the time-dependent, two-group diffusion theory ignoring delayed neutrons under several assumptions. A generalized characteristic equation which relates the prompt decay constants to the effective multiplication constant can in general he derived by expanding the static fluxes into kinetic fluxes containing the fundamental and higher modes, and several … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
