A method of calculating the antisymmetric neutron distributions in the single group approximation is proposed. A multizone cylindrical cell is considered and the neutron distribution in zone h of the cell is described by the single-group neutron-transfer equation in the transport approximation. The authors discuss using the surfacpseudosource method to calculate the distributions and the matrixfactorizing method is described. The ORAR-Ts program is examined which calculates the single-group antisymmetric neutron distributions in a cylindrical reactor cell with a specified current at the external cell boundary in the G/sub 1/ and G/sub 3/ approximations of the SPM. Calculation results are presented.
