The considered inverse problems deal with the calculation of the unknown values of nuclear installations by means of the known (goal) functionals of neutron/{gamma}-ray distributions. The example of these problems might be the calculation of the automatic control rods position as function of neutron sensors reading, or the calculation of experimentally-corrected values of cross-sections, isotopes concentration, fuel enrichment via the measured functional. The authors have developed the new method to solve inverse problem. It finds flux density as quasi-solution of the particles conservation linear system adjointed to equalities for functionals. The method is more effective compared to the one based on the classical perturbation theory. It is suitable for vectorization and it can be used successfully in optimization codes.
