An improvement modification of the Spectral Approach (SA) used for approximating the nonclassical neutral particle transport equation is described in this work. The main focus of the modified SA lies on a slight modification of the nonclassical angular flux representation as a function of truncated Laguerre series. This leads, in some cases, to a considerable decrease of the Laguerre truncation order required to generate accurate solutions. Numerical results are given to illustrate this proposed improvement.
