- ed.
Generalized perturbation theory has been used to investigate the sensitivity of the breeding ratio for the Clinch River Breeder Reactor to various cross section changes. Model studies to determine a one-dimensional model appropriate for the investigations are described. For a 26-group ENDF/B-III data set, curves which give the sensitivity of the breeding ratio to various fertile and fissile element cross sections are reported and discussed. An example of folding the sensitivity data with an ENDF/B covariance file is given. (auth)
