    Resolved resonance region (MLBW formula) : below 6.0 keV      
      All the resolved resonance parameters were brought          
      unmodified from JENDL-3.3 except for the negative-energy one
      : in JENDL-3.3/4/, resonance parameters obtained by         
      Gunsing et al./5/ were adopted.  They analyzed their        
      transmission data with REFIT code, and obtaind the          
      parameters up to 10 keV.  The upper boundary of the resolved
      resonance region was set to 6 keV in this file as in        
      JENDL-3.3, because the capture cross section calculated from
      their parameters were smaller than experimental data above  
      the energy.  Neutron width of the negative-energy resonance 
      was slightly adjusted so as to reproduce the value of       
      capture cross section for thermal neutrons adopted in this  
      file.  The adopted value is 23.6 b, which is the weighted   
      average of the cross sections reported by Molnar et al.6/   
      and Furutaka et al./7/ deduced from emission cross          
      sections of 540- and 591-keV decay gamma rays in Ru-100     
      using the recent gamma-ray emission probabilities for the   
      gamma rays/8/, and the corresponding values reported by     
      Harada et al./9/ recalculated with the new emission         
      probabilities.                                              
      The scattering radius of 6.7 fm was adopted.                
                                                                  
    Unresolved resonance region : 6.0 keV - 100 keV               
      Unresolved resonance parameters were adjusted with ASREP/10/
      to reproduce the capture and total cross sections calculated
      with CASTHY.  The parameters should be used only for self-  
      shileding calculation.

  Below 6 keV, resonance parameters were given.                   
  Above 6 keV, the spherical optical and statistical model        
  calculation was performed with CASTHY/11/, by taking account of 
  competing reactions, of which cross sections were calculated    
  with PEGASUS/12/ standing on a preequilibrium and multi-step    
  evaporation model.  The OMP's for neutron given in Table 1 were 
  determined to reproduce the total cross section measured by     
  Foster and Glasgow/13/ in the MeV region, and total cross       
  section of about 8 - 9 b in the 10-100 keV region. The OMP's    
  for charged particles are as follows:                           
     Proton   = Perey/14/

  Parameters for the composite level density formula of Gilbert   
  and Cameron/18/ were evaluated by Iijima et al./19/  More       
  extensive determination and modification were made in the       
  previous work/2/.  Table 2 shows the level density parameters   
  used in the calculation.  Energy dependence of spin cut-off     
  parameter in the energy range below E-joint is due to Gruppelaar
  /20/.

    Levels above 1.0175 MeV were assumed to be overlapping.       
    The compound inelastic scattering was calculated with CASTHY. 
    For the levels with "*", direct inelastic scattering was      
    calculated with DWUCK /22,23/. Deformation parameters were    
    based on the recommendation by Raman et al./24/               
                                                                  
  MT = 102  Capture                                               
    Spherical optical and statistical model calculation with      
    CASTHY was adopted.  Direct and semi-direct capture cross     
    sections were estimated according to the procedure of Benzi   
    and Reffo/25/ and normalized to 9 mb at 14.7 MeV /26/.        
                                                                  
    The gamma-ray strength function (8.01E-03) was adjusted to    
    reproduce the capture cross section of 630 mb at 50 keV.

    These reaction cross sections were calculated with the        
    preequilibrium and multi-step evaporation model code PEGASUS. 
                                                                  
    The Kalbach's constant K (= 101.5) was estimated by the       
    formula derived from Kikuchi-Kawai's formalism/27/ and level  
    density parameters.                                           
                                                                  
    Finally, the (n,2n) and (n,p) cross sections were normalized  
    to the following values at 14.5 MeV:                          
      (n,2n)      1230.00  mb (recommended by Bychkov et al./28/) 
      (n,p)         14.00  mb (recommended by Forrest/29/)        
    The (n,alpha) and (n,n'alpha) cross section was normalized to 
    the data of Ikdeda et al. /30/                                
                                                                  
MF = 4  Angular Distributions of Secondary Neutrons               
  Legendre polynomial coefficients for angular distributions are  
  given in the center-of-mass system for MT=2 and discrete inelas-
  tic levels, and in the laboratory system for MT=91.  They were  
  calculated with CASTHY. Those of direct inelastic scttering     
  were calculated with DWUCK, and added to the rusults of CASTHY  
  calculation.                                                    
                                                                  
  For other reactions, isotropic distributions in the laboratory  
  system were assumed.                                            
                                                                  
MF = 5  Energy Distributions of Secondary Neutrons                
  Energy distributions of secondary neutrons were calculated with 
  PEGASUS for inelastic scattering to overlapping levels and for  
  other neutron emitting reactions.

 Spin cutoff parameters were calculated as 0.146*SQRT(a)*A**(2/3).
 In the CASTHY calculation, spin cutoff factors at 0 MeV were     
 assumed to be 7.899 for Tc- 99 and 5.0 for Tc-100.
