Reverted MF=1/5, MT=455 Delayed-neutron 6-grp data to
ENDF/B-VI.8 values.
Covariances - BNL, July, 2011: Covariances were adopted from
COMMARA-2.0, which were contributed by BNL. Covariances are
combination of the uncertainties recommended in the assessment
of Ref. [1] and correlation matrices produced by the WPEC Subgroup
26 [2] converted to the AFCI 33-energy group structure. The
initial estimates were obtained using EMPIRE/KALMAN system with
default parameterization roughly adjusted to reproduce trends in
the experimental data. The KALMAN code was run with default
uncertainties assigned to the key model parameters to produce
covariances. Following the low-fidelity approach, the
uncertainties in the low energy region are based on experimental
uncertainties of thermal cross sections, uncertainties of the
resonance integrals and uncertainty of the scattering radius. The
assessment of Ref. [2] set elastic uncertainty at 3%, confirmed
fission uncertainty (except lowering it in the 4-6 MeV bin) and
(n,2n), but altered uncertainties of inelastic. [1] V.M. Maslov, P. Oblozinsky, M. Herman [2] D. Rochman, M. Herman, P. Oblozinsky, and S. F. Mughabghab T. Kawano, M.B. Chadwick, A. Kahler, P.G. Young [March 2009]
The fission cross sections near 100 keV were slightly modified
for better connection at the URR boundary. The capture cross
section was reevaluated with the Hauser-Feshbach calculations,
which resulted in 10% increase above 100keV.
