History
07-05 New calculation was made with CCONE code.
08-03 Recalculation with CCONE code was performed.
Data were compiled as JENDL/AC-2008/1/.
10-02 Data of prompt gamma rays due to fission were given.
10-03 Covariance data were given.
MF= 1 General information
MT=452 Number of Neutrons per fission
Sum of MT's=455 and 456.
MT=455 Delayed neutron data
(same as JENDL-3.3)
Average values of systematics by Tuttle/2/, Benedetti et
al./3/ and Waldo et al./4/
MT=456 Number of prompt neutrons per fission
(same as JENDL-3.3)
Based on systematics by Manero and Konshin/5/ and by
Howerton/6/
MF= 2 Resonance parameters
MT=151
Resolved resonance parameters (MLBW; 1.0E-5 to 150 eV)
Hypothetical resonance levels were generated with STAT code
/7/. Assumed average parameters:
D-0 = 35 eV, Gamma-g = 20 meV, Gamma-f = 0.012 meV
S-0 = 1.29E-4, R = 9.21 fm
A negative resonance was assumed at -5.0eV, its parameters
were adjusted so as to reproduce the thermal cross sections:
Fission = 0.002 b (estimated from systematics)
Capture = about 80 b /8/
Unresolved resonance parameters (150 eV to 200 keV)
Average resonance parameters were determined with ASREP code
/9/ so as to reproduce cross sections calculated with CCONE
code/10/.

MF=12 Photon production multiplicities
MT=18 Fission
Calculated from the total energy released by the prompt
gamma-rays due to fission which was estimated from its
systematics, and the average energy of gamma-rays.
MF=14 Photon angular distributions
MT=18 Fission
Isotoropic distributions were assumed.
MF=15 Continuous photon energy spectra
MT=18 Fission
Experimental data measured by Verbinski et al./12/ for
Pu-239 thermal fission were adopted.

MT=452 Number of neutrons per fission
Sum of covariances for MT=455 and MT=456.
MT=455
Error of 15% was assumed.
MT=456
Covariance was obtained by fitting a linear function to the
data at 0.0 and 5.0 MeV with an uncertainty of 5%.
MF=33 Covariances of neutron cross sections
Covariances were given to all the cross sections by using
KALMAN code/13/ and the covariances of model parameters
used in the cross-section calculations.
In the resolved resonance region, the following standard
deviations were assumed:
Total 44 %
Elastic scattering 50 %
Fission 50 %
Capture 50 %

Models and parameters used in the CCONE/10/ calculation
1) Coupled channel optical model
Levels in the rotational band were included. Optical model
potential and coupled levels are shown in Table 1.
2) Two-component exciton model/14/
* Global parametrization of Koning-Duijvestijn/15/
was used.
* Gamma emission channel/16/ was added to simulate direct
and semi-direct capture reaction.
3) Hauser-Feshbach statistical model
* Moldauer width fluctuation correction/17/ was included.
* Neutron, gamma and fission decay channel were included.
* Transmission coefficients of neutrons were taken from
coupled channel calculation in Table 1.
* The level scheme of the target is shown in Table 2.
* Level density formula of constant temperature and Fermi-gas
model were used with shell energy correction and collective
enhancement factor. Parameters are shown in Table 3.
* Fission channel:
Double humped fission barriers were assumed.
Fission barrier penetrabilities were calculated with
Hill-Wheler formula/18/. Fission barrier parameters were
shown in Table 4. Transition state model was used and
continuum levels are assumed above the saddles. The level
density parameters for inner and outer saddles are shown in
Tables 5 and 6, respectively.
* Gamma-ray strength function of Kopecky et al/19/,/20/
was used. The prameters are shown in Table 7.
