This document describes in detail the calculations that are basic to the xenon problem. While much of this work appears elsewhere, herein an attempt has been made to bring it together and make it as understandable as possible. The principle purpose of this document is to calculate the equilibrium xenon poisoning for the I and E geometry fuel element and compare the results to the equilibrium xenon poisoning for the solid geometry fuel element. Further objectives are to provide an understandable reference for those with interest in the basic xenon formulation, and to serve as a training guide for new …
