Conclusions • Consistent approach for nuclear data evaluations was elaborated in FZK • This method includes nuclear data evaluation up to 150 MeV, covariance matrixes calculations for all nuclear reactions presented in the files, nuclear data processing and finally benchmark calculations with MCNP • The microscopic evaluated data show good agreement with available experimental data • Calculated uncertainties are continuous in full energy range from thermal point to 150 MeV • Results of the benchmark calculations show good agreement with measured values • The developed approach is going to be applied for angular distributions covariance matrixes calculation
