Eigenvalue spectrum of infinite, two-region slab lattices for one-speed neutrons

Description

The monoenergetic transport equation with isotropic scattering is applied to an infinite, two-medium slab lattice. The two coupled integral equations that are derived are numerically solved using the spatial Legendre expansion method (Carlvik's method). Tables of seven or more eigenvalues for various dimensions of the bodies are given and the first 4 flux modes for some cases are plotted. In addition, simple approximation formulae for very high-order eigenvalues are derived and compared to the accurate results. (authors)
