      The data above the resolved resonance region were evaluated 
      and compiled by N.Iwamoto.

  MT=151 Resolved and unresolved resonance parameters             
    Resolved resonance region (MLBW formula) : below 5 keV        
      For JENDL-2, resonance energies were adopted from Tellier   
      /1/, and those not measured by Tellier were taken from      
      Rohr et al./2/ and Musgrove et al./3/ after                 
      normalization to Tellier's data.  Radiation widths were     
      derived from capture areas measured by Rohr et al. below 2  
      keV and Musgrove et al. above 2.5 keV; for the resonances   
      not measured by Tellier, neutron widths were determined from
      capture areas by assuming the average radiation widths of   
      0.077 eV for s-wave resonances and 0.085 eV for p-wave ones.
      Scattering radius was determined from systematics of        
      measured values.  A negative resonance was added at -6 eV so
      as to reproduce the capture cross section of 325+-10 barns  
      compiled by Mughabghab et al./4/                            
      For JENDL-3, total spin J of some resonances was estimated  
      with a random number method.                                
      For JENDL-3.2, these resonance parameters were modified so  
      as to reproduce the capture area data measured at ORNL, by  
      taking account of the correction factor (0.9507) announced  
      by Allen et al./5/  The parameters of a negative            
      resonance and scattering radius were adjuseted to get better
      agreement with recommended thermal cross sections/4/.       
      In JENDL-4, the data for 55.4 - 446.5 eV were replaced with 
      the ones obtained by Barry et al./6/                        
                                                                  
    Unresolved resonance region : 5.0 keV - 200.0 keV             
      The unresolved resonance paramters (URP) were determined by 
      ASREP code /7/ so as to reproduce the evaluated total and   
      capture cross sections calculated with optical model code   
      OPTMAN /8/ and CCONE /9/. The unresolved parameters         
      should be used only for self-shielding calculation.

      and semi-direct capture reaction.                           
                                                                  
  3) Hauser-Feshbach statistical model                            
    * Width fluctuation correction/18/ was applied.               
    * Neutron, proton, deuteron, triton, He3, alpha and gamma     
      decay channel were taken into account.                      
    * Transmission coefficients of neutrons were taken from       
      optical model calculation.                                  
    * The level scheme of the target is shown in Table 1.         
    * Level density formula of constant temperature and Fermi-gas 
      model were used with shell energy correction/19/.           
      Parameters are shown in Table 2.                            
    * Gamma-ray strength function of generalized Lorentzian form  
      /20/,/21/ was used for E1 transition.                       
      For M1 and E2 transitions the standard Lorentzian form was  
      adopted. The prameters are shown in Table 3.
