Why Lead and Bismuth • Materials with new important assignment • Suggested as material for spallation target • Experimental data is very old • Evaluations have distinctions Second IP EUROTRANS Internal Training Course Nuclear Data for Transmutation: status, needs and methods Santiago de Compostela (Spain)June 7 - 10, 2006 www.todorov.tk
ADS concept Accelerator-driven systems for transmutation of nuclear waste have been suggested as solution to the problem of nuclear spent fuel. Construction of subcritical system involves suggestion of new materials such as lead and bismuth for spallation target as well as coolant and moderator At present, the accuracy of nuclear data seems to be enough to design ordinary fission reactors, but for innovative ADS more accurate data are needed for nuclides, which have not yet played important roles in ordinary reactors.

Reich-Moore resolved resonance parameters were adopted from the ENDF/B-VI.8 evaluation based on Horen and Larson below 70 keV, and Mughabghab above 70 keV • JENDL-3.3 file was evaluated by M.Mizumoto (JAERI), Jul87. Later resonance parameters were corrected by T.Nakagawa. Parameters were based on the data of Horen and recommendation of Mughabghab. Parameters of dummy resonances were taken from ENDF/B-VI evaluation.

Summary Review of evaluated nuclear data files for several Lead and Bismuth nuclei was done. In addition basic information is given for status of data. Averaging for resonance parameter in RRR was performed which gives an idea for quality of the data and distinction between different libraries, major differences are: • Γγ for all nuclei is two-three or more times greater for variety of libraries • Strength function for 206Pb in JENDL is 50% higher than ENDF/B • Strength function for207Pb in BROND is more than 10% higher than others Second IP EUROTRANS Internal Training Course Nuclear Data for Transmutation: status, needs and methods Santiago de Compostela (Spain)June 7 - 10, 2006 www.todorov.tk
Summary • The accurate measurement of Pb and Bi cross sections is important to improve the accuracy of the evaluated nucleardata • Evaluations were based on the data of Horen 78 • New resonance analysis is necessary in low energy region on the base of existing new measurements in CERN n-TOF and Gelina Belgium from 2004 • Accuracy valuation required from the design is need for success of nuclear data evaluation activity.
