Abstract:

The general procedure of solving the one-velocity Boltzmann equation in the case of plane geometry is presented. It is assumed that the scattering function can be expanded into the finite series of Legendre polynomials. The complete set of eigenfunctions of the Boltzmann equation is found. The orthogonality and completeness of the eigenfunctions are proved. By way of illustration, solutions of some basic problems of neutron diffusion are given. Author
