This paper is concerned with the numerical solution of nonlinear equations \(F(x)= 0\) in Banach spaces which are locally uniquely solvable. The method under consideration is a disturbed Newton-Kantorovich-type method of the form \[ x_{n+ 1}= x_n- A(x_n)^{- 1}F(x_n)- z_n,\quad n= 0,1,\dots, \] where \(A(x_n)\) is a linear operator approximating the Fréchet derivative \(F'(x_n)\), and the points \(z_n\) are chosen in such a way that the iterates converge towards an exact solution. The convergence and error is analyzed, and it is shown that the method converges faster than Newton's method (\(A(x)= F'(x)\), \(z_n= 0\)) with the same computational cost. The method is, finally, applied to quadratic integral equations that arise e.g. in the theory of neutron transport, the theory of radiative transfer, or in the kinetic theory of gases.
