Translated from Prib. Tekh. Eksp.; 16: No. 3, 75-77(1973). Results are described of calculating the shape of the line of the /sup 3/He(n,p) reaction in spherical counters. It is shown that in order to construct the shape of the energy-release spectra of the products of the /sup 3/He(n,p) reaction with allowance for the finite dimensions of the sensing volume of a /sup 3/He spherical counter, one can use approximate analytic relationships with a sufficient degree of accuracy without resorting to calculation according to the Monte-Carlo method.
