ORNL Neutron Cross Section Measurements of 90 Zr NCSP ND-1 Task [Slides]

Luiz Leal's idea to integrate the experimental uncertainties, covariances, and sensitivities in this workflow and centralize the process at one location led to the creation of a cohesive tool for data testing. It has been practiced for more than two decades by the NCS and ND groups at ORNL. The development and use of the ORNL codes TSUNAMI and TSURFER within SCALE made it possible. Today, it has been extended to SAMINT which enables the coupling of differential and integral data evaluation in a continuous-energy framework.

ORNL neutron cross section measurements and evaluations for improved nuclear data [Slides]

This presentation discusses the nuclear data measurements and evaluation work for NCSP, including its objective which is to provide measured and evaluated thermal, resonance, unresolved resonance, and fast region cross-section data to address the priority NCSP nuclear data needs. It also discusses its vision which addresses multiple Nuclear Data 5- and 10-year goals and attributes identified in the NCSP Vision. The intended final product is that rigorous ENDF/B evaluations will be produced from cross section measurements and analyses. Measurement work effort focused on NCSP priorities by NCSP Nuclear Data Advisory Group (NDAG) can be found in Appendix B of the 5-year plan. NCSP measurements program at JRC is now part of the DOE/Euratom agreement, Action Sheet 66.
