ABSTRACT: The problems of formation of neutron fields
are using the radionuclide neutron sources. Theoretical estimates of the
contribution to the values of the neutron flux density, kerma and ambient dose
equivalent scattered neutron radiation under various conditions of use of
neutron sources. The coefficients for calculating the values of different
variables at different distances from the source are using the measured values
at certain distances from the source. The values of the average energies for
neutron spectra are obtained using the radionuclide neutron sources.
