HISTORY
81-04 EVALUATION FOR JENDL-2 WAS MADE BY T. OHSAWA AND M. OHTA
(KYUSHU UNIVERSITY: PRESENT ADDRESS OF OHSAWA IS KINKI
UNIV.). DETAILS OF THE EVALUATION ARE DESCRIBED IN REF.
/1/.
83-11 FISSION SPECTRUM WAS GIVEN. THE TOTAL, (N,2N) AND (N,3N)
CROSS SECTIONS WERE MODIFIED.
87-07 JENDL-2 DATA WERE ADOPTED FOR JENDL-3.
COMPILATION WAS MADE BY T.NAKAGAWA(JAERI).
94-06 JENDL-3.2.
NU-P, NU-D AND NU-TOTAL WERE MODIFIED.
COMPILED BY T.NAKAGAWA (NDC/JAERI)
***** MODIFIED PARTS FOR JENDL-3.2 ********************
(1,452), (1,455), (1,456)
***********************************************************
MF=1 GENERAL INFORMATION
MT=451 COMMENT AND DICTIONARY
MT=452 NUMBER OF NEUTRONS PER FISSION
SUM OF NU-P NAD NU-D.
MT=455 DELAYED NEUTRONS PER FISSION
AVERAGE VALUES OF SYSTEMATICS BY TUTTLE/2/, BENEDETTI ET
AL./3/ AND WALDO ET AL./4/ DECAY CONSTANTS WERE ASSUMED
TO BE THE SAME AS THOSE OF TH-232 EVALUATED BY BRADY AND
ENGLAND/5/.
MT=456 PROMPT NEUTRONS PER FISSION
BASED ON THE SEMI-EMPIRICAL FORMULA OF HOWERTON /6/.
MF=2 RESONANCE PARAMETERS
MT=151 RESOLVED RESONANCES
NO RESOLVED RESONANCES WERE ADOPTED, SINCE THERE WERE NO
MEASUREMENTS MADE. THE CAPTURE CROSS SECTION AT 0.0253 EV
/7/ WAS EXTRAPOLATED ON AN 1/V BASIS UP TO AN ENERGY OF 15
EV. THE FISSION CROSS SECTION AT 0.0253 EV IS LESS THAN 0.02
BARN /8/, THEREFORE IT WAS ASSUMED TO 0.0 BARN.
CALCULATED 2200-M/S CROSS SECTIONS AND RES. INTEG.(BARNS)
2200-M/S RES. INTEG.
TOTAL 14.75 -
ELASTIC 13.0 -
FISSION 0.0 0.26
CAPTURE 1.75 93.7
MF=3 NEUTRON CROSS SECTIONS
MT=1 TOTAL CROSS SECTION
OPTICAL MODEL CALCULATION WITH THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS:
V = 41.0 - 0.05*E (MEV),
WS = 6.4 + 0.15*SQRT(E) (MEV), -- DER. WOODS-SAXON --
VSO= 7.0 (MEV),
R0 = RSO = 1.31 (FM),
RS = 1.38 (FM),
A = B = ASO= 0.47 (FM).
THESE PARAMETERS WERE TAKEN FROM THOSE FOR TH-232 /9/.
MT=2 ELASTIC SCATTERING CROSS SECTION
STATISTICAL AND OPTICAL MODEL CALCULATIONS USING THE CODE
CASTHY /10/.

LEVELS ABOVE 1.06 MEV WERE ASSUMED TO BE OVERLAPPING.
MT=16,17 (N,2N) AND (N,3N) CROSS SECTIONS
CALCULATED BY MEANS OF THE EVAPORATION MODEL OF SEGEV AND
CANER /11/.
MT=18 FISSION CROSS SECTION
FISSION PROBABILITY DEDUCED FROM DIRECT REACTION /12/ AND
SYSTEMATICS OF BEHRENS /13/ WERE USED TO OBTAIN FISSION
CROSS SECTION.
MT=102 CAPTURE CROSS SECTION
STATISTICAL AND OPTICAL MODEL CALCULATIONS WITH GAMMA-RAY
STRENGTH FUNCTION OF 0.00791.
MT=251 MU-BAR
CALCULATED WITH OPTICAL MODEL.
MF=4 ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OF SECONDARY NEUTRONS
MT=2,51-67,91
STATISTICAL AND OPTICAL MODEL CALCULATIONS.
MT=16,17,18
ASSUMED TO BE ISOTROPIC IN THE LABORATORY SYSTEM.
MF=5 ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF SECONDARY NEUTRONS
MT=16,17,91
EVAPORATION SPECTRA WERE GIVEN.
MT=18
FISSION SPECTRUM WAS ESTIMATED FROM Z**2/A SYSTEMATICS
