DESCRIPTION:Title: Stochastic Analysis of the Neutron Transport Equation\n
 \nAbstract: The neutron transport equation (NTE) describes the net movemen
 t of neutrons through an inhomogeneous fissile medium\, such as a nuclear 
 reactor. One way to derive the NTE is via the stochastic analysis of a spa
 tial branching process. This approach has been known since the 1960/70s\, 
 however\, since then\, very little innovation in the literature has emerge
 d through probabilistic analysis. In recent years\, however\, the nuclear 
 power and nuclear regulatory industries have a greater need for a deep und
 erstanding the spectral properties of the NTE.\n\nIn this talk I will form
 ally describe the dynamics of the so-called neutron branching process (NBP
 )\, along with an associated Feynman Kac representation. I will then discu
 ss how the latter can be used to analyse the long-term behaviour of the nu
 clear fission processes through both a Perron-Frobenius decomposition and 
 a strong law of large numbers result.\n\n \n\n \n
