A description is given of measurements required to determine the values of thermal utilization for U-10 wt.% Mo fuel elements in hexagonal lattices of three different spacings. The discussion includes a description of the lattice cells, and a graphical representation of the neutronflux distributions in the cell materials. Epi-cadmium neutron-flux distributions and cadmium ratios for each lattice cell studied are included. (auth
