The characteristic relation between imposed reactor reactivity and exponential growth or decay rates in a point kinetics model. Several kinetic modes can coexist; the late-time behaviour is determined by the mode with greatest real growth rate that is actually excited.

The Inhour equation is a formula used in nuclear engineering, particularly in the context of reactor kinetics and neutron diffusion. It characterizes the relationship between the neutron flux in a nuclear reactor and the reactor's reactivity, typically under steady-state or slightly perturbed conditions.
