In the analysis of a reactor space-time problem by the method of modal expansion, the labor is reduced and accuracy improved if the modes are chosen such that the expansion has the property of finality. Modes having this property are identified for a zero power (no feedback) reactor and for a reactor with linearized xenon feedback.
