  28. Evaluation and validation of high energy cross-section data for the FENDL-3 nuclear data library • Proposed research activities by FZK • Full evaluations of neutron and proton induced high energy cross-section data (up to 150 MeV) including co-variance information • Preparation of data files in ENDF-6 format • Validation analyses based on Monte Carlo calculations of available integral experiments • Preparation of special radiation damage cross-sections for structural materials.

  29. Proposed research activities by FZK • Validation analyses • Monte Carlo calculations with the MCNP code will be performed for the FENDL-3 data evaluations using suitable integral benchmark experiments. • Measured and calculated responses will be compared and possible discrepancies will be analysed to identify deficient cross-section data. • This information will be used to improve the FENDL-3 data evaluations.

  30. Proposed research activities by FZK • Neutron cross-section data • Consistent evaluation of high energy neutron cross-sections (up to 150 MeV) for selected nuclides such as Cr-50, -52, -53, -54, Mn-55, Ta-181, W-182, -183, -184, -186 and others including co-variance data information. • General purpose 150 MeV data files will be prepared in standard ENDF-6 data and made available for FENDL-3. • Proton activation cross-section data • Current version of the Proton Activation Data File PADF-2007 (comprising 418,575 excitation functions for 2355 target nuclei from Mg to Ra for proton energies from 0 up to 150 MeV) will be extended to include more nuclides, it will be updated to take into account new experiments, and will be complemented by co-variance data

  31. Proposed research activities by FZK • Radiation damage data: • Neutron and proton induced displacement cross-section data will be evaluated for structural materials such as Cr, Fe, Ni and others using experimental information about defect generations in irradiated materials, results of molecular dynamics simulations, and results of binary collision approximation model calculations. • These data will be prepared in a special data file for FENDL-3.
