Popis: An investigation was carried out into the penetration of neutrons from the BR-5 reactor in straight cylindrical channels 144 and 90 mm in diameter. Sulphur and aluminium threshold indicators were used as detectors. Data were obtained on the axial attentuation in straight cylindrical channels of fast neutron fluxes from a disk and infinite plane mono-directional fission-neutron source, and the effect on the attenuation of the neutron radiation of displacement of the channels was studied. The results can be used to calculate the axial penetration of neutron radiation in stepped channels.
