“…Background Radiation ( 2) The source of background neutrons at measuring pointe may be considered : (1) neutrons distribute uniformly in the reactor room after multiple scattering of wall, floor and ceiling of the reactor room, (2) transmitted neutrons through the shielding door, (3) scattered neutrons from the collimator wall, (4) scattered neutrons from the wall of reactor building. The source of background r-rayn were estimated as capture r-rays.…”

Transmitted neutron spectra were measured for Fe slabs of 9.6 and 19.2 em thick and 1 and 2 canned Na slabs of 15 em thick (thickness of the stainless-steel can was 3 mm). The neutrons from the core of fast neutron source reactor "Y A YO!" of the University of Tokyo were collimated and incident to the slabs. The intensity and the profile of the incident neutron beam was determined by a preliminary experiment. The transmitted neutrons were measured on the collimated axis and polar angle of 30' and 45' to the axis. Point-to-point Monte Carlo calculation was carried out for the purpose of comparison with experimental data. The results of the calculation showed good agreement to the experimental spectra.

“…A brief review of all these methods is given by Clifford,Mynatt and Straker (1969). For a variety of reasons none of these methods are considered in this study^ which is restricted to the multigroup discrete ordinate (or discrete S^) treatment of the neutron transport equation (Wick, 1943;Chandrasekhar, 19A4 and 1960;Carlson 1953).…”
