mf=1 General information
mt=451 Descriptive data and dictionary
mf=2 Resonance parameters
mt=151 Resolved resonance parameters
Resolved parameters for MLBW formula were given in
the energy region from 1.0e-5 eV to 450 keV.
Parameters were taken from the recommended data of BNL/1/ and
the data for a negative resonance were added so as to reproduce
the recommended thermal cross sections for capture and scatter-
ing/1/.
The scattering radius was assumed to be 4.3 fermi.
Calculated 2200 m/sec cross sections and resonance integrals
are as follows:
2200 m/s cross section(b) res. integral(b)
elastic 2.83
capture 0.038 0.0190
total 2.87
mf=3 Neutron cross sections
Below 450 keV, zero background cross section was given and all
the cross-section data are reproduced from the evaluated resolv-
ed resonance parameters with mlbw formula.
Above 450 keV, the total and partial cross sections were given
pointwise.
mt=1 Total
Optical and statistical model calculation was made with
the casthy code/2/. The optical potential parameters used are:
V = 49.68, Vso = 7.12 (MeV)
Ws = 7.76 - 0.5*En, Wv = 0 (MeV)
r = 1.17, rs = 1.09, rso = 1.17 (fm)
a = 0.6, aso = 0.6, b = 0.69 (fm)
mt=2 Elastic scattering
Obtained by subtracting the sum of the partial cross sections
from the total cross section.
mt=4, 51-63, 91 Inelastic scattering
Calculated with casthy /2/, taking account of the contribution
from the competing processes. The direct component was
calculated with the dwuck code/3/.
The level data used in the above two calculations were taken
from ref./4/ as follows:
mt level energy(MeV) spin-parity
0.0 0+
51 1.8087 2+
52 2.9384 2+
53 3.5880 0+
54 3.9405 3+
55 4.3180 4+
56 4.3320 2+
57 4.3500 3+
58 4.8340 2+
59 4.9000 4+
60 4.9720 0+
61 5.2910 2+
62 5.4740 4+
63 5.6900 1+
Levels above 8.0 MeV were assumed to be overlapping.
mt=16, 22, 28, 103, 107 (n,2n), (n,na), (n,np), (n,p), (n,a)
Calculated with the gnash code/6/ using the above optical
model parameters
The (n,a) cross sections were normalized to the experimental
data of Bormann/5/ at 14 MeV.
mt=102 Capture
Calculated with the casthy code/2/ and normalized to 1.7 mb
at 30 keV.
mf=4 Angular distributions of secondary neutrons
mt=2
Calculated with the casthy code/2/.
mt=51-63
Calculated with the casthy code/2/ and the dwuck code/3/.
mt=91
Calculated with the casthy code/2/.
mt=16, 22, 28
Isotropic in the laboratory system.
mf=5 Energy distributions of secondary neutrons
mt=16, 22, 28, 91
Calculated with the gnash code/6/.
mf=12 Photon multiplicities and transition probabilities
mt=16,22,28,91,103,107

mt=51-63
Stored under option-2 (transition probability array).
mt=102
Calculated with casthy.
mf=14 Photon angular distributions
mt=16,22,28,51-63,91,102,103,107
