A four-group fission-product absorption chain library using ENDF/B-IV decay data and cross sections processed with a typical light water reactor spectrum for a modified version of the original CINDER code has been developed as described in Part 1. CINDER is a general point-depletion and fission product code based on an analytical solution of the equations describing nuclides coupled in any linear sequence of radioactive decays and neutron absorptions. The basic code has been in wide use for a number of years. Previously, the user was required to specify all physical data. This report describes the chain library in detail and a modified version of the basic CINDER code (EPRI-CINDER) that is still compatible with existing libraries.
