Abstract

In this paper the spectrum of the neutrons escaping from a critical sphere of U233 is investigated experimentally and theoretically. The experimental investigation involved exposing a nuclear emulsion to the neutron flux and, after development, examining the details of the proton-recoil tracks visible in the emulsion.
