Standard cross-section data

Compendium of benchmark neutron fields for reactor dosimetry :

“…With the shell transmission established by experiment at one energy, the lowenergy side of the spectrum depends only upon the 1/v behavior of the 10 B absorption which is a cross section standard below 100 keV [Ca84a]. This behavior has been established both by measurement and by theory.…”

“…This behavior has been established both by measurement and by theory. From thermal to 1 keV it is accurate to ± 1%; up to 10 keV it is within ± 2%, and up to 100 keV within ± 3% [Ca84a], [Wa77a], [Ha76a],…”

First-principles calculations and thermodynamic modeling of the V–Zr system

“…With the characteristics of low thermal neutron capture cross section [1,2], good corrosion resistance [3,4] and excellent capability of preventing creep distortion [5,6], vanadium is a prospective additive element of Zr-alloys for nuclear application. Both V and Zr are also used simultaneously as additive elements for steel, Ti-alloys, Cu-alloys etc.…”

The data base of the standards and related cross sections after ENDF/B-VI

“…The evaluatioIls up to version VI The data base which was available for the ENL)F/B-VI evaluation has been repeatedly discussed (for more recent examples see Refs. [7][8][9][10][11]. Therefore, in the following we will mainly consider data which have become available since the ENDF/B-VI evaluation.…”
