Status of the RRR evaluations for 233,235 U and 239 Pu [Slides]
The presentation discusses the R -Matrix Analysis of 233 U, 235 U, and 239 Pu and how their interplay among PFNS, TNC, RRR, and neutron multiplicities has a significant impact on the benchmarks. The presentation also discusses the 233 U improved agreement on benchmarks, an additional investigation on the thickness of beryllium reflectors, work on URR (up to 40 keV) and/or extension of RRR (600 eV to 2 keV). Also discussed is how the 235 U progresses on understanding reactivity rates related to depletion calculations, improved agreement with measured (capture) data is quite insensitive to resolve the negative slope, and how the 239 Pu negative slope as a function of the temperature is not understood yet (bias over 2σ lower than measured).
