TIME-DEPENDENT NEUTRON TRANSPORT FROM A POINT ISOTROPIC SOURCE AT AN ALTITUDE OF 100,000 FEET,
Abstract
Results of a Monte Carlo calculation of the neutron fluence and flux density in the vicinity of a point isotropic source at an altitude of 100,000 ft (30.48 km) are presented. The fluence and flux density were obtained at 20 detector locations as functions of time and energy for 12 monoenergetic neutron sources. The variation of atmospheric density with altitude is considered in these calculations. A brief discussion of the dependence of the results on detector location is given. (Author)
