The US and USSR's most recent evaluationsof /sup 235/U, /sup 239/Pu, /sup 240/Pu and /sup 241/Pu are compared over the thermal region and over the first few resonances. The two evaluations rest on essentially the same experimental data base and the differences reflect different approaches to the representation of the cross sections or different weightings of the experimental results. It is found that over the thermal and resolved ranges the two evaluations are very similar. Some differences in approaches are briefly discussed.
