A problem of minor actinides transmutation under the action of neutron irradiation is considered. The transmutation process is described by kinetic equations set for the functions of nuclei and particles distribution. The equations are nonlinear integral- differential ones relating to the required distribution functions. The results of calculations were used for the optimization of experiment conditions that were carried out at proton accelerator of LHE of JINR (Dubna).
Key words: transmutation, subcritical systems, minor actinides, neutron flux density
