    Direct Coupling of Energy Groups, Multigroup Neutron Diffusion

    This one comes from Duderstadt and Hamilton, Problem 7-3. In multi-group diffusion theory What percentage of neutrons slowing down in hydrogen will tend to skip energy groups if the group structure is chosen such that \frac{E_{g-1}}{E_{g}}=100= 1/\alpha_{approx}. I know that the...
