See if you can get a copy of "Reactor Shielding For Nuclear Engineers." by

N. M. Schaeffer, 1973.  Chapter 7, "Albedos, Ducts and Voids,"  has a good

discussion of neutron transmission through ducts using the Simon-Clifford

method,  and the book has enough data tso that you can actually do some

calcs.


The book was originally put out by the US AEC (it's old) and may still be

available through the US NTIS.<SNIP


If you would like a copy there is a copy availbel on Barnes and Noble online bookshop see below.
