ENDF/B-VI, Release 3
--------------------
The ninth distribution of the ENDF/B-VI data tapes was released on
16th May 1995. That distribution included updates and corrections to the
neutron, neutron thermal scattering and neutron fission-product yield
sublibraries.
These updates have now been received at the NEA and the three relevant
sublibraries have been modified. The names of these files have been changed
to include the string "REL3" in order to clearly distinguish which files
have change since ENDF/B-VI Release 2. All other sublibraries remain
unchanged.
Listed below are the materials which changed and the tapes on which these
modifications have been included for Release 3. Note that the tape contains ALL the
materials for the relevant sublibrary, not just the updated ones.
