Zusammenfassung:	Research based on the pulsed neutron experiment method (α-method) of subcriticality monitoring of the spent fuel pool at the Smolensk NPP is presented. The procedure includes stationary and nonstationary neutron-physical calculations and measurements of the main characteristics of a subcritical multiplying system, which the spent-fuel pool is. A description of the STEPAN-KhOYaT software specially developed for the computational support of the pulsed experiment is given. The subcriticality for real loads of spent-fuel pools is calculated and measured using the procedure.
