The AMPX code system has been limited to processing Version 5 formats of the Evaluated Nuclear Data File (ENDF). Work is in progress to upgrade the AMPX code system to process ENDF/B-VI data. A substantial amount of code development is complete, and the latest version of AMPX has the capability to (a) process cross sections in the resolved resonance region (RRR) using the multipole formalism and (b) produce continuous-energy cross sections from ENDF/B-VI data. Comprehensive testing of the new modules is underway, and the purpose of this work is to establish the capabilities of the new AMPX code system for criticality safety applications.
