Abstract: The problem of unfolding measured Bonner sphere data to derive a neutron spectrum is outlined and the use of a priori information, derived either from neutron transport calculations or measurements with other instruments, is discussed. Examples are given of cases where this a priori information greatly increases the confidence in the final spectrum. Neutron transport calculations can also help in understanding Bonner sphere measurements in particular if unexpected features are seen.
