Summary:
The transport equation for the neutron density in an infinite absorbing and non-multiplying medium is discussed provided the initial distribution is known. The macroscopic effective cross-sections and sources are considered to be functions of spatial, angular, energetic and time coordinates. Two theorems asserting the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the problem are presented.
