Hi,
As you may know, the following equation gives the number of neutrons absorbed per cm3/sec in a resonance region.
Fa=Φav∫∑a(E) dE
So, it is said in Lamarsh, introduction to nuclear engineering, that Φav depends on temperature. I do not get this because I know that the flux is something we control. Or should we think just whenever we tune the flux, let's say 1 MeV, the ambient temperature affects its energy?
Thank you in advance.
