摘要
An algorithm for calculation of prompt fission neutron lifetimes in a nuclear reactor by the Monte Carlo method is described. Evaluation of the importance function is carried out with solution of the neutron transport equation without solving the adjoint equation. The results of the prompt neutron lifetime calculations performed within some critical experiments are presented and compared with the experimental results.
