The derivation focuses on individual detector results and the option of coarse group spectrum adjustment when observed spectral indexes are in modest disagreement with the prediction of an a priori neutron spectrum of unknown accuracy. Characteristics of the procedure include a simple choice of error components, exclusion of intrinsic spectrum interpolations, and an explicit diagnosis of the effect upon the adjustment of individual detector response parameters. A sample problem is worked out in detail.
