RSIC DATA LIBRARY DLC-155

1. NAME AND TITLE OF DATA LIBRARY

 ACTV-F/H: Neutron Activation Cross Section Library for Fusion Reactor Design.

 

2. NAME AND TITLE OF DATA RETRIEVAL PROGRAMS

 The data can be accessed using the ENDF/B-VI utilities as packaged by RSIC, PSR-299/ENDFUTIL6.

 

3. CONTRIBUTOR

 International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria.

 

4. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AND INFORMATION

 At the IAEA Specialists' Meeting on "Fusion Evaluated Nuclear Data Library and Benchmark Calculations" (May 1989), the working group initiated an intercomparison of activation cross sections important for fusion reactor design. It was agreed that the national nuclear data centers will send to IAEA Nuclear Data Section their contributions to the list of reactions issued by Harwell Laboratory (UK) selected on the basis of inventory calculations. The activation data library described is part of the library REAC*2 of Hanford National Laboratory, USA.

 

5. APPLICATION OF THE DATA

 The library of 284 neutron reactions can be used in fusion reactor designs.

 

6. SOURCE AND SCOPE OF DATA

 The library contains 284 reaction and capture cross sections for isotopes or 58 elements. The data were converted to ENDF-6 format at IAEA Nuclear Data Section. In most cases, the code THRESH was used.

 

7. DISCUSSION OF THE DATA RETRIEVAL PROGRAMS

 The codes in PSR-299/ENDFUTIL6 can be used.

 

8. DATA FORMAT AND COMPUTER

 Card images; Most computers.

 

9. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

 None noted.
