The principal effort during the three month period May 1, 1983 to July 31, 1983 consisted of setting up a surface source model for the Haefely neutron tube. The main reason for this, as has been pointed out in previous reports, was the complexity of the Haefely neutron tube. The main thrust of the recent work has been towards testing the feasibility of using this patch in generating a source on the surfaces of the Haefely tube. In addition, a few corrections have been made to the results for the 1D and 2D simulation of the Lotus Hybrid blanket-I assembly, presented in the previous report.
