Description

  • Content Description: Note presenting a revision of the semiempirical method of dealing with shields by treating them as composed of layers by taking the angular distribution of the radiation into account and by making use of the transport equation. The method is illustrated by consideration of the effect upon neutrons of a thick nonabsorbing shield of high atomic weight.
