LLNL IPD Tasks: ICSBEP and Pulsed Spheres Benchmark [Slides]

This lecture presented benchmark of the blank and polyethylene spheres at SINBAD in April 2023. In responding to comments about the building, we uncovered a large amount of additional detailed information about the building and experimental set up. We incorporated this new information into an even higher fidelity model and are working on uncertainty analysis at a low level. Scheduled to present at SINBAD meeting in April 2024.

Impact of Light Water Covariance on Integral Benchmarks [Slides]

New light water covariance has been generated. Impact of covariance quantified using two metrics on systems deemed sensitive to thermal scattering of light water. Analysis shows systems might not be sensitive enough to show significant differences. What differences were shown are most notable when comparing against the ENDF/B-VIII.0 covariance.
