The Carlson S/sub n/-method is being adapted to the calculation of angular and total flux distributions in shielding configurations. Accordingly, computational procedures for spherically symmetric shields were developed which accounts for the anisotropy of elastic scattering of neutrons, Preliminary calculations for a water shield gave flux distributions that compare favorably with the results of moments methods and Monte Carlo calculations.
