3. DESCRIPTION

The TENDL-2008 library (TALYS-based Evaluated Nuclear Data Library), developed at NRG, was processed to the ACE format for use with Monte Carlo codes (www.talys.eu/tendl-2008). It consists of a set of 348 neutron data files for isotopes from F-19 to Po-209, stable and long-lived nuclides, completely and consistently evaluated using the TALYS-1.0 nuclear reaction code package (NEA-1737). For all isotopes and incident particles, the same methodology is applied to obtain cross sections, angular distributions, double differential data, gamma production data, isomeric production cross sections covariance information. The result is a nuclear data library with mutually consistent reaction and covariance information for all isotopes.

 

The TENDL-2008 library has been checked with the CHECKR, FIZCON and PSYCHE checking programs and successfully processed with NJOY.

 

ACE files are provided also for isotopic evaluations for incident protons, deuterons, tritons, helions and alpha particles.

 

The full information is available on www.talys.eu/tendl-2008.
