HISTORY
87-03 NEW EVALUATION WAS MADE BY T.NAKAGAWA (JAERI).
DETAILS ARE DESCRIBED IN REF. /1/.
MF=1 GENERAL INFORMATION
MT=451 COMMENTS AND DICTIONARY
MT=452 NUMBER OF NEUTRONS PER FISSION
SUM OF MT=455 AND MT=456
MT=455 DELAYED NEUTRON DATA
BASED ON SEMI-EMPIRICAL FORMULA BY TUTTLE /2/.
MT=456 NUMBER OF PROMPT NEUTRONS PER FISSION
BASED ON SEMI-EMPIRICAL FORMULA BY HOWERTON /3/.
MF=2,MT=151 RESONANCE PARAMETERS
RESOLVED RESONANCE PARAMETERS (MLBW) : 1.0E-5 EV TO 1 KEV
RESONANCE PARAMETERS WERE TAKEN FROM MOORE EL AL. /4/ BY
ASSUMING AN AVERAGE VALUE OF RADIATIVE CAPTURE WIDTH (0.035
EV) AND FISSION WIDTH (0.035 EV). TWO HYPOTHETICAL RESONANCES
AT 1.4 AND -3.5 EV WERE ADOPTED TO REPRODUCE THE 2200-M/S
CROSS SECTIONS AND RESONANCE INTEGRALS /5,6/. SCATTERING
RADIUS OF 9.23 FM WAS ESTIMATED FROM THE SHAPE ELASTIC
SCATTERING CROSS SECTION CALCULATED WITH CASTHY /7/ FROM
OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS GIVEN BELOW.
UNRESOLVED RESONANCES : 1 TO 30 KEV
PARAMETERS WERE ESTIMATED FROM RESOLVED RESONANCES AND
ADJUSTED SO AS TO REPRODUCE THE EVALUATED FISSION AND CAPTURE
CROSS SECTIONS BY USING ASREP /8/. VALUES OF THE PARAMETERS
ARE D-OBS = 27 EV, R = 8.9 FM AND S0, S1, CAPTURE AND FISSION
WIDTHS ARE AS FOLLOWS.

MF=3 NEUTRON CROSS SECTIONS
BELOW 30 KEV, CROSS SECTIONS ARE REPRESENTED WITH RESONANCE
PARAMETERS. ABOVE 30 KEV, DATA WERE MAINLY CALCULATED WITH
OPTICAL AND STATISTICAL MODELS.
1) THE OPTICAL MODEL CALCULATION WAS PERFORMED WITH CODE CASTHY
/7/. OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS USED WERE OBTAINED /9/ BY
FITTING THE TOTAL CROSS SECTION MEASURED BY PHILLIPS AND HOWE
/10/ FOR AM-241:
V = 43.4 - 0.107*EN (MEV)
WS= 6.95 - 0.339*EN + 0.0531*EN**2 (MEV)
(IN THE DERIVATIVE WOODS-SAXON FORM)
WV= 0 , VSO = 7.0 (MEV)
R = RSO = 1.282 , RS = 1.29 (FM)
A = ASO = 0.60 , B = 0.5 (FM)
2) IN THE STATISTICAL CALCULATION, THE FISSION, (N,2N), (N,3N)
AND (N,4N) CROSS SECTIONS WERE CONSIDERED AS THE COMPETING
PROCESS CROSS SECTIONS.
3) THE LEVEL DENSITY PARAMETERS WERE DERIVED FROM RESONANCE
LEVEL SPACINGS AND LOW LAYING EXCITED LEVELS ON THE BASIS OF
GILBERT-CAMERON'S FORMULA /11/.
