Decay constants for pulsed monoenergetic neutron systems with quadratically anisotropic scattering

The eigenvalues of the time-dependent transport equation for monoenergetic neutrons have been studied numerically for various combinations of linearly and quadratically anisotropic scattering assuming a space dependence of e β . The results, presented in the form of tables and graphs, show that quadratic anisotropy leads to a more complicated eigenvalue spectrum. However, no drastic changes occur in comparison to purely linear anistropy.(author)
