The Slab Albedo Problem Using Singular Eigenfunctions and the Third Form of the Transport Equation

Authors: Ayşe KASKAS, Cevdet TEZCAN

Abstract: The albedo and the transmission factor for slabs are obtained using the infinite medium Green's function in terms of the singular eigenfunctions in the third form of the transport equation. Our analytical results are simple as in F_{N}-method and the convergence of the numerical results is as faster as in the C_{N}-method. Calculations are also carried out by various incoming angular fluxes and uncollided neutrons are taken into account. Our numerical results are in very good agreement with the results of the C_{N} method.
