NEUTRON REFLECTION AND FLUX VERSUS DEPTH FOR WATER. WITH AN APPENDIX -- COMPARISON WITH RESULTS OF NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS

Abstract

Detailed calculated results on neutron reflection and flux versus depth for water are given in the form of machine printouts. The angular and energy distributions of the reflected neutrons along with the energy-dependent and total flux at various depths are contained in tabular form on the printouts. Neutron number current, number flux and dose transmission as functions of thickness are also given in tabular form on the printouts. A table of summary information on reflection is presented. This contains number current, number flux, dose and energy reflection factors as functions of incident energy and angle. A few figures are presented to illustrate graphically the meaning of the various tabular results. Some comparisons are made with results obtained by the National Bureau of Standards.
