Neutron and Gamma-Ray Attenuation for a Fission Source in Water : Comparison of Theory with LTSF Measurements

Description: Calculations are presented of the fast neutron dose rate, the gamma-ray dose rate, and the thermal neutron flux along the source plate axis in the Lid Tank with the tank filled entirely with water. These calculations are compared with experimental measurements. The calculations are absolute and are compared with absolute measurements.
