Epithermal neutron distribution (epithermal neutron flux)

Input(s)

NNN_{N}: Source Strength (neutrons/s)

r\mathrm{r}: Distance from Source (cm)(\mathrm{cm})

LeL_{e}: Slowing Down Length (cm)(\mathrm{cm})

DeD_{e}: Epithermal Diffusion Coefficient (cm)(\mathrm{cm})

Output(s)

ψe(r)\psi_{e}(r): Epithermal Neutron Flux at a Distance (r) from the Source (neutrons /cm2/s/ \mathrm{cm}^{2} / \mathrm{s} )

Formula(s)

ψe(r)=(NN4πDe)exp(rLe)r\psi_{e}(r)=\left(\frac{N_{\mathrm{N}}}{4 * \pi * D_{e}}\right) * \frac{\exp \left(-\frac{r}{L_{e}}\right)}{r}
