HISTORY
79-03 NEW EVALUATION FOR JENDL-2 WAS MADE BY T.YOSHIDA(NAIG).
86-12 JENDL-2 DATA WERE CRITICALLY REVIEWED.
88-03 JENDL-2 DATA WERE REVISED TO MAKE JENDL-3 ON THE BASIS
OF THE 86-12 REVIEW. NEW RUSSIAN MEASUREMENTS (1982- 1986)
WERE FULLY ADOPTED, RESULTANTLY LEADING TO A NEARLY 30
PER-CENT REDUCTION OF CAPTURE CROSS-SECTION ABOVE 1.5 KEV.
SUB-THRESHOLD FISSION CURVE WAS INTRODUCED BETWEEN 1.5 KEV
AND 700 KEV. UNKNOWN GAMMA-F WAS ASSUMED TO BE 0.354
MILLI-EV.
DATA WERE COMPILED BY T.NAKAGAWA (JAERI).
90-07 FP YIELD DATA WERE MODIFIED.
90-10 MF=5, MT=16,17,91: SPECTRA AT THRESHOLD ENERGIES WERE
MODIFIED.

SUM OF MT'S 455 AND 456.
MT=455 DELAYED NEUTRONS PER FISSION
SIX GROUP DECAY CONSTANTS WERE ADOPTED FROM BRADY ET AL./1/
NU-D BELOW 6 MEV WAS ADOPTED FROM GUDKOV ET AL./2/, AND THAT
ABOVE 7 MEV FROM BOBKOV ET AL./3/, RESPECTIVELY.
MT=456 PROMPT NEUTRONS PER FISSION

GAM-N (FOR GAM-N SMALLER THAN 0.1*GAM-G) : MEWISSEN /6/
GAM-G : MEWISSEN /6/, WHEN NOT GIVEN, MEAN VALUE WAS TAKEN.
GAM-F : THEOBALD /7/.
AVERAGE GAM-G = 23.0 MILLI-EV
AVERAGE GAM-F = 0.354 MILLI-EV
A NEGATIVE RESONANCE WAS INTRODUCED TO REPRODUCE THE 2200-
M/S CAPTURE CROSS SECTION OF (5.11+-0.21) BARNS RECOMMENDED
IN BNL-325 4TH EDITION.
UNRESOLVED RESONANCES : 1.5 KEV TO 40 KEV
PARAMETERS WERE DETERMINED TO REPRODUCE TOTAL AND CAPTURE
CROSS SECTIONS CALCULATED WITH CASTHY AND EVALUATED FISSION
CROSS SECTION. OBTAINED PARAMETERS ARE:
S0 = 0.906E-4, S1 = ENERGY DEPENDENT (1.8E-4 - 2.7E-4)
GAM-G = 0.023 EV, GAM-F = ENERGY DEPENDENT
R = 9.36 FM, D-OBS = ENERGY DEPENDENT (14.66 - 13.57 EV)

BELOW 1.5 KEV, ALL BACKGROUND CROSS SECTIONS ARE ZERO.
ABOVE 1.5 KEV, DATA WERE EVALUATED AS FOLLOWS. IN THE ENERGY
RANGE FROM 1.5 TO 40 KEV, UNRESOLVED RESONANCE PARAMETERS WERE
EVALUATED AND BACKGROUND CROSS SECTION WAS GIVEN TO ELASTIC
SCATTERING.
MT=1,2,4,51-79,91,102,251 SIG-T,SIG-EL,SIG-IN,SIG-C,MU-BAR
COUPLED CHANNEL AND STATISTICAL MODEL CALCULATIONS WERE MADE
WITH ECIS /8/ AND CASTHY CODES /9/, RESPECTIVELY.
THE DEFORMED OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS AFTER HAOUAT AND
LAGRANGE /10/:
VR =49.8 - 16*SY - 0.3*EN (MEV),
WS = 5.3 - 8*SY + 0.4*EN (EN .LT. 10 MEV) (MEV),

VSO= 6.2 (MEV),
WHERE SY=(N-Z)/A
R=1.26, RS=1.26, RSO=1.12 (FM),
A=0.63, AS=0.52, ASO=0.47 (FM).
THE SPHERICAL OPTICAL POTENTIAL PARAMETERS FOR THE STATISTI-
CAL MODEL CALCULATION WITH CASTHY:
VR =40.8 - 0.05*EN, (MEV),
WS = 6.5 + 0.15*EN (MEV),
VSO= 7.0 (MEV),
R=1.32, RS=1.38, RSO=1.32 (FM),
A=0.47, AS=0.47, ASO=0.47 (FM).
COMPETING PROCESSES : FISSION, (N,2N) AND (N,3N)
LEVEL FLUCTUATION WAS CONSIDERED. THE GAMMA-RAY STRENGTH
FUNCTION WAS DETERMINED SO THAT THE CALCULATED CAPTURE CROSS
SECTION REPRODUCED THE MEASURED VALUE OF 0.85 BARNS /11/
