Title: An approximate algorithm for the flux from a rectangular volume source

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10194636

An exact semi-analytic formula for the flux from a rectangular surface source with a slab shield has been derived and the required function table has been calculated. This formula is the basis for an algorithm which gives a good approximation for the flux from a rectangular volume source. No other hand calculation method for this source geometry is available in the literature.
