      The data above the resolved resonance region were evaluated 
      and compiled by N.Iwamoto.

    Resolved resonance region (MLBW formula) : below 4 keV        
      For JENDL-2, resonance energies were taken from Tellier     
      /1/, and after calibration, data of Rohr et al./2/ and      
      Musgrove et al./3/ were adopted for the levels not          
      measured by Tellier.  Neutron widths were adopted from      
      Tellier, and radiation widths were obtained from the        
      capture areas measured by Rohr et al. and Musgrove et al.   
      The average radiation width of 0.087 eV was assumed for the 
      resonances whose capture area was not measured, and to      
      estimate neutron widths from the capture areas for the      
      resonances not measured by Tellier.  A negative resonance   
      was added so as to reproduce the thermal capture and total  
      cross sections given by Mughabghab et al./4/                
      For JENDL-3, total spin j of some resonances was tentative- 
      ly estimated with a random number method.                   
      For JENDL-3.2, the capture data measured at ORELA of ORNL   
      were renormalized (factor = 0.9507)/5/.  The neutron width  
      and/or the radiation width was revised to reproduce the     
      renormalized capture area for each resonance above 2.592    
      keV.                                                        
      In JENDL-4, the data for 4.36 - 497.87 eV were replaced with
      the ones obtained by Barry et al./6/  The parameters for    
      the negative resonance were adjusted so as to reproduce     
      the thermal capture cross section recommended by Mughabghab 
      /7/.                                                        
                                                                  
    Unresolved resonance region : 4.0 keV - 200.0 keV             
      The unresolved resonance paramters (URP) were determined by 
      ASREP code /8/ so as to reproduce the evaluated total and   
      capture cross sections calculated with optical model code   
      OPTMAN /9/ and CCONE /10/. The unresolved parameters        
      should be used only for self-shielding calculation.

  2) Two-component exciton model/16/                              
    * Global parametrization of Koning-Duijvestijn/17/            
      was used.                                                   
    * Gamma emission channel/18/ was added to simulate direct     
      and semi-direct capture reaction.                           
                                                                  
  3) Hauser-Feshbach statistical model                            
    * Width fluctuation correction/19/ was applied.               
    * Neutron, proton, deuteron, triton, He3, alpha and gamma     
      decay channel were taken into account.                      
    * Transmission coefficients of neutrons were taken from       
      optical model calculation.                                  
    * The level scheme of the target is shown in Table 1.         
    * Level density formula of constant temperature and Fermi-gas 
      model were used with shell energy correction/20/.           
      Parameters are shown in Table 2.                            
    * Gamma-ray strength function of generalized Lorentzian form  
      /21/,/22/ was used for E1 transition.                       
      For M1 and E2 transitions the standard Lorentzian form was  
      adopted. The prameters are shown in Table 3.
