Numerical Computation of Neutron Distribution and Critical Size

Description: Report presenting a numerical calculation, by diffusion theory, of the critical size of a nuclear reactor, and of the time dependent distribution of neutrons in the reactor as a function of position (one-dimensional space) and neutron energy. The mathematical development of the numerical method, properties of the equations, and procedure are discussed in the report, along with a numerical example.

Use of Discharge Tubes in Spectrochemical Analysis

Description: While this survey of discharge tube sources probably has not yielded information of much direct interest to the great majority of analysts, it seems probable that these sources will become of greater interest as they become better developed and more demand is created for extension of spectrochemical methods to non-metallic samples.

Investigation of the Shape of Beta Spectra at the Low-Energy End

Description: The applicability of proportional counting to low-energy p-spectra has been demonstrated. As yet, however, nothing has been primarily directed toward the general problem of spectral shapes at the low-energy end. This report attempts to address that and to resolve questions about it experimentally.
