Abstract

A study was made of the variation of neutron temperature with the constant B (for the epithermal portion having a Fermi distribution) and of the deformation of the fission spectrum with lattice position in the reactor of the Institute of Atomic Physics, Bucharest. The reactor is heterogeneous with 10%- enriched uranium moderated and cooled by natural water. (T.R.H.)
