Resumen:
We identify a neutron-flux "skin effect"in the context of neutron transport theory. The skin effect, which emerges as a boundary layer at material interfaces, plays a critical role in a correct description of transport phenomena. A correct accounting of the boundary-layer structure helps bypass computational difficulties reported in the literature over the last several decades, and should lead to efficient numerical methods for neutron transport in two and three dimensions.
