In applying the spherical harmonics method to multilayer neutron transport problems it is necessary to invert certain matrices. In the case of one-group theory for the problems with plane, spherical, or cylindrical symmetry, these inverse matrices can easily be written down explicitly, so that there is no need for numerical matrix inversion. This result is extended to the case of multigroup theory. (auth)
