ASTM standard recommended guide on application of ENDF/A cross section and uncertainty file: establishment of the file

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5237346
A new ASTM Standard Recommended Guide on Application of ENDF/A Cross Section and Uncertainty File is in preparation by ASTM Committee E10 on Nuclear Technology and Applications. This ASTM Standard is being prepared in support of the standardization of physics-dosimetry procedures and data needed for Light Water Reactor (LWR) power plant pressure vessel and support structure materials surveillance and test reactor development programs. However, the file will also be applicable for analysis of most fast reactor dosimetry and some fission neutron spectra. Later extension of the file to cover fusion applications such as neutron spectra from accelerator sources is possible. The main subject of this paper is the establishment of the ENDF/A Cross Section and Uncertainty File.
