In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the noise transmission characteristics of nonmultiplying media of liquid-metal fast breeder reactors (LMFBRs) and study its implications on the detection of malfunctions in LMFBR cores by using out-of-core detectors and noise analysis methods. Neutron wave propagation technique has been used to study the problem by employing different approximations such as infinite and finite medium, one- and two-group diffusion theory, and multiregion and multigroup diffusion theory approximation. 11 refs.
