The program DESTHEC DP, in FORTRAN MONITOR for the IBM 7090, solves the transport equation for thermal neutrons in slab geometry. For the energy, Galerkin's method with the double P/sub 1/ approximation is used, Comparison shows good agreement between DESTHEC DP results and results obtained by the THERMOS program, which solves the transport equation in integral form. The theory is presented, and input and output are discussed. Numerical results are included, as well as the program listing. (D.C.W.)
