2000-09 Evaluation was performed by A.K.M.Harun-ar-Rashid (tit),  
        M.Igashira (tit), T.Ohsaki (tit), and K.Shibata (jaeri).  
2001-02 Compiled by K.Shibata (jaeri).                            
2009-09 The unresolved resonance parameters were obtained by      
        K.Shibata.  The data were compiled by K.Shibata.

   mt=151 Resolved and unresolved resonance parameters            
     Resolved resonance region: below 3.5 keV                     
       Resolved resonance parameters were taken from Ref. 1       
       The bound level at -163.0 eV has Gamma-n = 1.91395 eV and  
       Gamma-gamma = 0.088 eV.  This choice gives the desired     
       value for the thermal capture cross section, 2.74+-0.08 b. 
       Values of Gamma-gamma not given in Ref.1 are set to 0.088  
       eV.  21 resonances [L=1] did not have values given for "J",
       10 are assigned to J= 0.5 and the remaining 11 to J= 1.5 by
       random method.  The value for the scattering radius is     
       7.6fm, taken from Ref.2 with small change with in the given
       error, so as to produce the close value of the thermal     
       neutron scattering cross section recommended by Mughabghab 
       [2].  Highest energy resonance included is 3304.1 eV.      
       No background cross sections were given.                   
     Unresolved resonance region: 3.5 - 500 keV                   
       The parameters were obtained by fitting to the calculated  
       total and capture cross sections.  The unresolved resonance
       parameters obtained should be used only for self-shielding 
       calculation.

     Spherical optical model calculation was made by using        
     casthy code [3].  Parameters are as follows,

                  (energies in MeV, lengths in fm).               
                                                                  
   mt=  2  Elastic scattering cross section                       
      The cross sections were obtained by subtracting a sum of    
      reaction cross sections from the total cross sections.

      account. The direct and semidirect capture cross sections   
      were added above 2 MeV by using the quick gnash code [5,8].
