Calculation of slowing down with probability tables

This paper introduces nonstatistical probability tables that take into account the actual neutron slowing down. The authors' goal is to enable the use of probability tables for any reactor physics application. Toward this purpose, they introduce cross-probability tables that contain the information lost by the simple probability tables. This method has the advantage of being general, without specific treatment for the wide or the intermediate resonances. The authors have shown that the method can work, but its accuracy needs improvement.
