----JENDL-3.3 MATERIAL 9343
-----INCIDENT NEUTRON DATA
------ENDF-6 FORMAT
===========================================================
JENDL-3.2 data were automatically transformed to JENDL-3.3.
Interpolation of spectra: 22 (unit base interpolation)
(3,251) deleted, T-matrix of (4,2) deleted, and others.

HISTORY
93-03 NEW EVALUATION WAS MADE FOR JENDL-3.2.

MT=455 DELAYED NEUTRON DATA
DETERMINED FROM SYSTEMATICS BY TUTTLE/1/, BENEDETTI/2/ AND
WALDO ET AL./3/ DECAY CONSTANTS WERE TAKEN FROM THE EVALU-
ATION FOR NP-238 BY BRADY AND ENGLAND/4/.

============
MT= 1 TOTAL CROSS SECTION
CALCULATED WITH OPTICAL MODEL CODE CASTHY/7/. PARAMETERS
ARE LISTED IN TABLE 1.

TOTAL - (SUM OF PARTIAL CROSS SECTIONS)
MT= 16, 17 (N,2N) AND (N,3N) CROSS SECTIONS
CALCULATED FROM A FORMULA GIVEN BY SAGEV AND CANER/9/.
THE REACTION CROSS SECTIONS CALCULATED WITH CASTHY WAS
ADOPTED AS THE NON-ELASTIC SCATTERING CROSS SECTION.
MT= 18 FISSION CROSS SECTION
ABOVE 5 MEV, A SIMPLE FORMULA BY BYCHKOV ET AL./9/ WAS USED.
EXPERIMENTAL DATA OF BRITT AND WILHELMY/10/ AND SYSTEMA-
TICS/11/ WERE CONSIDERED. THE CROSS-SECTION CURVE WAS
SMOOTHLY CONNECTED AT 20 KEV TO THE DATA OF VAL'SKIY ET
AL./8/
MT= 4, 51-54, 91 INELASTIC SCATTERING CROSS SECTION
CALCULATED WITH CASTHY (OPTICAL AND STATISTICAL MODEL).
PARAMETERS USED ARE LISTED IN TABLES 1, 2 AND 3. THE LEVEL
SCHEME WAS TAKEN FROM EVALUATION BY SCHMORAK/12,13/.
MT= 102 CAPTURE CROSS SECTION
CALCULATED WITH CASTHY. AVERAGE CAPTURE WIDTH AND LEVEL
SPACING WAS ASSUMED TO BE 0.035 EV AND 0.11EV, RESPECTIVELY.
DIRECT AND SEMI-DIRECT CAPTURE WAS CALCULATED FROM A SIMPLE
FORMULA OF BENZI AND REFFO/14/.

MT=18
EVAPORATION SPECTRA. TEMPERATURE WAS DETERMINED FROM
SYSTEMATICS BY SMITH ET AL./15/
TABLE 1 OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS
DETERMINED BY MURATA/16/ EXCEPT A CONSTANT TERM OF V
THAT WAS SELECTED SO AS TO REPRODUCE S0 OF 1.0E-4.
