✦ Synopsis

The actual neutron energy and spatial distributions in a medium arising from unidirectional normally incident monoenergetic neutrons has been theoretically calculated using statistical techniques. The present medium of interest is an infinite plane slab of material. The neutron beam is incident isotropically on one face and the differential flux at different locations along the slab's thickness has been calculated. Effects of inelastic scattering have been also considered. Comparison with other calculations is given.
