Abstract A brief description is given of methods of calibrating neutron sources used in various laboratories of the Academy of Sciences, USSR. Particular attention is given to a method of measuring absolute intensity of neutron sources developed by the authors in 1950–1951, using an idea suggested by O'Neal and Scharf-Goldhaber. A table of intensities for the Ra-α-Be, N-23 source (a mixture of 44.25 nig of an equilibrium preparation of radium and beryllium powder, pressed into a hermetically sealed container) obtained at various laboratories of the Academy of Sciences, USSR, is presented.
