NEUTRON REFLECTION AND FLUX VERSUS DEPTH FOR ALUMINUM WITH AN APPENDIX. NEUTRON DOSE TRANSMISSION VERSUS THICKNESS.

Abstract

Detailed calculated results of neutron reflection and flux versus depth for aluminum 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 various tabular results. An appendix contains the dose transmission results as a function of incident angle and slab thickness for the various incident energies. (Author)
