ENDF File Validation is a process developed to simulate VISION experiments. This method showed significant differences in inelastic spectra compared to experimental measurements. Differential data should be incorporated into thermal neutron scattering evaluation process to ensure accurate TSL files. The Polyethylene Discrepancy Issue has been found and corrected. The resulting ENDF manual change has been submitted and is currently under review.
