Decay constant and modal analysis measurements were performed in a U/sup 235/-water critical assembly, and infinitemedium neutron spectra in water poisoned with a 1/V absorber were measured at various pressures and temperatures. The results were compared with theoretical predictions. Neutron penetration of water shielding was also measured. Theoretical work involved models and codes for neutron thermalization in ZrH, Be, and water. (D.C.W.).
