RESOLVED RESONANCES FOR MLBW FORMULA : 1.0E-5 EV - 1.5 KEV
PARAMETERS OF REF./4/ WERE ADOPTED AFTER MODIFICATION OF
AN AVERAGE RADIATIVE WIDTH TO 0.026 EV/5/. A NEGATIVE
LEVEL WAS ADDED AT -2.06 EV SO AS TO REPRODUCE THE CROSS
SECTIONS AT 0.0253 EV/5/.

UNRESOLVED RESONANCES : 1.5 KEV - 50 KEV
THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS WERE GIVEN.

MF=3 NEUTRON CROSS SECTIONS
BELOW 50 KEV, RESONANCE PARAMETERS WERE EVALUATED.
BACKGROUND CROSS SECTIONS FOR THE FISSION WERE GIVEN IN THE
UNRESOLVED RESONANCE REGION.
MT=1,2,4,51-69,91,102 TOTAL, ELASTIC AND INELASTIC SCATTERING,
AND CAPTURE
CALCULATED WITH COUPLED-CHANNEL CODE ECIS/6/ AND SPHERICAL
OPTICAL AND STATISTICAL MODEL CODE CASTHY/7/.
THE DEFORMED OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS OF LAGRANGE/8/
WERE ADOPTED FOR THE ECIS CALCULATION.
V = 46.42 - 0.3 * EN, RO = 1.26, AO = 0.63
WS = 3.72 + 0.4 * EN, RS = 1.26, B = 0.52
EN UP TO 10 MEV
= 7.72
EN ABOVE 10 MEV
VSO = 6.2 RSO= 1.12 ASO= 0.47
BETA2 = 0.194
BETA4 = 0.071
THE FOLLOWING SPHERICAL OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS FOR THE
CASTHY CALCULATION WERE DETERMINED SO AS TO REPRODUCE THE
TOTAL CROSS SECTION CALCULATED WITH ECIS BY USING THE ABOVE
OMP.
V = 41.49 - 0.1359 * EN
WS = 9.284 - 0.2086 * EN+ 0.03225 * EN**2

THE GAMMA-RAY STRENGTH FUNCTION (=84.6E-4) WAS DETERMINED
BY NORMALIZING THE CAPTURE CROSS SECTION TO 0.46535 B AT 50
KEV WHICH WAS CALCULATED FROM ABOVE-MENTIONED UNRESOLVED
RESONANCE PARAMETERS.
MT=16,17 (N,2N) AND (N,3N)
JENDL-2 DATA CALCULATED WITH THE EVAPORATION MODEL WERE
RENORMALIZED SO THAT THEY MIGHT BE CONSISTENT WITH THE
FISSION AND COMPOUND FORMATION CROSS SECTIONS CALCULATED
WITH ECIS AND CASTHY.
MT=18 FISSION
EXPERIMENTAL DATA /10,11,12/ OF FISSION CROSS SECTION RATIO
TO U-235 WERE EVALUATED. FISSION CROSS SECTION WAS
OBTAINED BY MULTIPLYING THE U-235 FISSION CROSS SECTION/13/
TO THE RATIO.
