Abstract

A discussion is given in the stochastic process of neutron multiplication and detection in a nuclear reactor. The use of physically justifiable assumptions makes it possible to simplify the mathematically complicated problem and find the productive probability function for the number of counts in a definite interval of time. The distribution found has been confirmed experimentally. Some applications of the theory are indicated for determining the reactor kinetic parameters.
