Abstract
Abstract The effect of anisotropic scattering on the variation of the critical thickness for one-speed neutrons in a uniform finite slab has been studied using Marshak boundary conditions. Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind are used in the angular part of the neutron flux. The critical slab thicknesses are calculated for various values of collision and anisotropy parameters. Numerical results obtained by the present method for the critical thickness are presented in the tables together with the results obtained by Legendre polynomials approximation and the ones available in the literature for comparison.
