1. NAME AND TITLE OF DATA LIBRARY

IRDF-82: International Reactor Dosimetry Data.

2. NAME AND TITLE OF DATA RETRIEVAL PROGRAM

No retrieval program is included in the package.

3. CONTRIBUTOR

International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria.

4. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AND INFORMATION

IRDF-82 is an international reactor dosimetry data package. A retrieval code is provided for accessing the reaction cross sections.

5. APPLICATION OF THE DATA

IRDF-82 contains 620 neutron group cross sections (SAND-II format) based on the ENDF/B-V Special Purpose Dosimetry File as well as other reaction cross sections important for dosimetry applications. In addition, multigroup spectra for ten reference benchmarks are also provided.

6. SOURCE AND SCOPE OF DATA

This 1982 version of the International Reactor Dosimetry File is composed of two different parts. The first part is made up of a collection of dosimetry cross sections and the second part contains a collection of benchmark spectra. For ease of use in dosimetry applications, both cross sections and spectra are distributed in multigroup (as opposed to continuous energy) form. Each of these two parts can be found in the ENDF/B-V format as a separate computer file.

7. DISCUSSION OF THE DATA RETRIEVAL PROGRAM

Not applicable.

8. DATA FORMAT AND COMPUTER

EBCDIC card images; IBM 360/370.

9. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

11. CONTENTS OF LIBRARY

Included are the referenced document and one (1.2MB) DOS diskette which contains the international reactor dosimetry files NDS and spectra, the merger source program, merged cross sections, and merger JCL and data, plus printed output from sample problem.
