Soviet Atomic Energy Aims and scope

Abstract

An approximate method is discussed for solving the kinetic equation for an infinite homogeneous reel dium with uniformly distributed sources for the conditions

.

A simple analytical expression is obtained for determining the shape of the spectrum. The shape of the spectrum, caleuiated on the basis of this expression, has been compared with that obtained experimentally.
