INFLUENCE OF THE EARTH'S CORE UPON THE RATE OF THE EARTH'S ROTATION

Abstract

AD-278 477Div. 20 U (TISTP/TL) OTS price $3.60 RAND Corp., Santa Monica, Calif. SOLUTIONS TO THE CRITICALITY PROBLEM FOR SPHERES AND SLABS, by A. Leonard and T. W. Mullikin. July 62, 27p. incl. 10 refs. (Memo. no. RM-3256-PR) (Contract AF 49(638)70 Proj. RAND) Unclassified report DESCRIPTORS: *She ts, *Spheres, *Homogeneous reactors, *Neutrons, *Scattering, *Integral transforms, Density, Integral equations, Critical assemblies.A study is presented of the problem of determining the relation between the critical size of homog neous slab and spheric l reactors and neutron production, with the assumption that the energy of neutrons is constant. Equations are derived for the slab with anisotropic scattering, the solution of these equations is studied for isotropic scattering. (Author)
