Abstract
It is well known that the count-loss effect produces serious problems for the neutron correlation methods that employ a single neutron counting system, e.g. the variance-to-mean and the auto-correlation methods, since it deteriorates the information extracted from the subcritical reactor system. New formulae of the variance-to-mean and auto-correlation methods were hence obtained on the basis of a rigorous theoretical approach for treating the count-loss process. It is expected that the present formulae work better than conventional ones for determination of the neutron decay constant.
