Maxwellian-Averaged Cross Sections (MACS)

MACS calculated from JENDL-3.3 (Japanese Evaluated Nuclear Data Library, version 3, release 3)

• Descriptions (format of data files)
• Capture cross section for 336 nuclides
• Fission cross section for 61 nuclides
• (n,p) cross sections for 40 nuclides
• (n,alpha) cross sections for 32 nuclides
• Other reactions

These data were repoted in Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables, Volume 91, Issue 2, Pages 77-230 (November 2005)
