Merging of resonance data into the main file
************** G E N E R A L I N F O R M A T I O N *************
This evaluated data file is based primarily on a theoretical
analysis with the nuclear model code TALYS [kon04], version 0.56.
The nuclear model parameters of TALYS have been adjusted to
reproduce the existing experimental data. The resulting data file
provides a complete representation of nuclear data needed for
transport, damage, heating, radioactivity, and shielding
applications over the incident neutron energy range from
1.0E-11 to 200 MeV.
This file is part of a larger collection of isotopic evaluations,
all created by running TALYS with input parameters that do not or
slightly deviate from the default values. The mutual quality of
these isotopic evaluations is thus relatively consistent.
The same set of nuclear models is used and, equally important,
the same ENDF-6 formatting procedures for each isotope. We have
intended to make this evaluation complete in its description of
reaction channels, and use a compact method to store the data.
For certain reactions and energy ranges TALYS may not be used.
This is the case when TALYS is not appropriate, such as for the
description of resonances, or when the directly available
experimental data is of better quality, as for e.g. low-energy
total cross sections. In these cases, we have adopted the best
possible data from an existing library, or directly from unfiled
experimental data. All transport data for particles, photons and
residual nuclides are filed using a combination of MF1,2,3,4 and
MF6. This includes cross sections, angular distributions,
double-differential spectra, discrete and continuum photon
production cross sections, and residual production (activation)
cross sections. Moreover, isomeric production data are stored in
MF8 and MF10. This evaluation can thus be used as both transport
and activation library. The data file has been created
automatically using the ENDF-6 format generator TEFAL.

*************************** T H E O R Y **************************
TALYS is a computer code system for the prediction and analysis
of nuclear reactions. TALYS simulates reactions that involve
neutrons, gamma-rays, protons, deuterons, tritons, helions and
alpha-particles, in the 1 keV - 200 MeV energy range and for
target nuclides of mass 12 and heavier. This is achieved by
implementing a suite of nuclear reaction models into a single
code system. It enables to evaluate nuclear reactions from
the unresolved resonance region up to intermediate energies. This
evaluation is based on a theoretical analysis that utilizes the
optical model, compound nucleus statistical theory, direct
reactions and pre-equilibrium processes, in combination with
databases and models for nuclear structure. For Fe-58, the
following output of TALYS is stored in this data file:
- Total, elastic and non-elastic cross sections
- Elastic scattering angular distributions
- Inelastic cross sections to discrete states
- Inelastic scattering angular distributions to discrete states
- Exclusive channel cross sections, e.g. (n,g), (n,2n), (n,np),..
- Exclusive channel energy spectra
- Exclusive channel double-differential spectra
- Exclusive gamma production for discrete states and continuum
- Isomeric and ground state cross sections
- Residual production cross sections
- Total particle cross sections, e.g. (n,xn), (n,xp),..
- Total particle energy spectra
- Total particle double-differential spectra
Here follows a short description of the used nuclear models:
##### OPTICAL MODEL
All optical model calculations are performed by ECIS-97 [ray94],
in TALYS used as a subroutine. The default optical model
potentials (OMP) used are the local and global parameterizations
of Koning and Delaroche [kon03]. These are phenomenological OMPs
for neutrons and protons which in principle are valid over the
1 keV - 200 MeV energy range, though the low energy boundary of
validity may differ from nucleus to nucleus (e.g. for the total
cross sections, experimental data are included directly in the
file for energies below that boundary). Solving the Schroedinger
equation with this OMP yields the total cross section, the
shape-elastic cross section, the shape-elastic angular
distribution, the wave functions for the direct reaction cross
sections (see below), the transmission coefficients for the
compound nucleus model (see below) and the reaction cross
sections for the pre-equilibrium model (see below).
For neutrons and protons, the used parameterization is given in
Eq. (7) of [kon03].
To calculate the transmission coefficients and reaction cross
sections for deuterons, tritons, helions and alpha particles, we
use OMPs that are directly derived from our nucleon potentials
using Watanabe's folding approach [mad88].
##### DIRECT REACTIONS
The built-in ECIS-97 is used for coupled-channels or DWBA
calculations for rotational or vibrational (or a combination of
these) nuclides. For Fe-58, DWBA was used to compute the direct
cross sections to several low-lying discrete levels:
Level Energy Spin/Parity Deformation parameter beta_L
1 0.810784 2.0+ 0.87000
12 3.135000 4.0+ 0.09000
24 3.860800 3.0- 0.18950
+ a few additional states with small deformation parameters.
In addition, a macroscopic, phenomenological model to describe
giant resonances in the inelastic channel is used. For each
multipolarity an energy weighted sum rule applies and a DWBA
calculation with ECIS-97 is performed for each giant resonance
state. The cross section is then spread over the continuum with a
Gaussian distribution.
##### COMPOUND NUCLEUS
For binary compound nucleus reactions we use the model of
Moldauer [mol80], i.e. the Hauser-Feshbach model [hau52]
corrected for width fluctuations. The transmission coefficients
have been generated with the aforementioned OMPs and the full
j,l-dependence of the transmission coefficients in the
Hauser-Feshbach model is used. For each nucleus that can be
reached through a binary reaction, several discrete levels and a
continuum described by level densities are included
simultaneously as competing channels.
The compound nucleus angular distributions are calculated with
the Blatt-Biedenharn formalism [bla52], leading to compound
nucleus Legendre coefficients that are added to their direct
counterparts. For multiple compound emission, i.e. emitted
particles after the binary emission, we use the Hauser-Feshbach
model. Again, for each residual nucleus several discrete states
are included as well as a continuum described by level densities.
Multiple compound emission is continued until all reaction
channels are closed and the population distribution of all
residual nuclides is depleted, through gamma decay, until they
end up in the ground state or in an isomer.
For the level density, we take the composite formula proposed by
Gilbert and Cameron [gil65], consisting of a constant temperature
law at low energies and a Fermi gas expression at high energies.
For the level density parameter a we use the energy dependent
expression proposed by Ignatyuk [ign75] to take into account the
damping of shell effects at high excitation energy. We have
obtained the parameters for the Ignatyuk formula from a
simultaneous fit to all experimental D_0 values as present in the
RIPL library. If necessary, we adjust individual parameters to
obtain a better fit to experiment.
Gamma-ray transmission coefficients are generated with the
Kopecky-Uhl generalized Lorentzian for strength
functions [kop90], with giant dipole resonance parameters taken
from the RIPL library [rip98], and normalized with experimental
radiative widths [gar84].
##### PRE-EQUILIBRIUM REACTIONS
For pre-equilibrium reactions, which become important for
incident energies above about 10 MeV, we use the two-component
exciton model [kon04b], in which the neutron or proton types of
particles and holes are followed throughout the reaction. For
energies above 20 MeV, multiple pre-equilibrium emission up to
any order of particle emission was included in the calculations.
A parameterization for the squared matrix element is used that is
valid for the whole energy range of this evaluation.
For deuterons, tritons, helions and alpha-particles, an extra
contribution was added from the pick/up and knock-out reaction
model by Kalbach [kal01].
For photons, the model of Akkermans and Gruppelaar [akk85] was
applied, to simulate the direct and semi-direct capture
processes.
The angular distribution systematics by Kalbach [kal88] were used
to describe the angular distributions for all continuum
particles. An isotopic distribution for photons was adopted.
##### COMPARISON WITH EXPERIMENTS
This evaluation was performed simultaneously with other adjacent
isotopes, both for incident neutrons and protons. This enables,
when compared with a single-isotope effort, to put stronger
constraints on the produced calculated data, i.e. a globally
good comparison between TALYS and experimental data is requested
for all isotopes at the same time, while nucleus-specific input
(default or adjusted) parameters are consistently used for all
isotopes. Also, experimental data that is not available for the
isotope under study may be present, and tested, for adjacent
nuclides or for other projectiles. If these can be successfully
described by the models, a similar performance can be expected
for the present data file. Examples are the (n,xp)....(n,xa)
spectra for Fe-nat up to 96 MeV obtained within the HINDAS
project [sly03,lec03], (n,xn) and (n,xp) data on Fe-nat below 20
MeV [mat92,koz78,vil93,sod95,ban96] and 26 meV (n,xn)-data on
Fe-56 [mar83].
##### TOTAL AND REACTION CROSS SECTIONS AND ELASTIC SCATTERING
We have used the global OMP for Fe-58 as described in [kon03] in
our calculations.
Consult [kon03] for the complete experimental database of elastic
scattering angular distributions as well as total cross sections
and for a comparison of calculations and measurements over the
whole energy range.
##### OTHER PARTIAL CROSS SECTIONS
- (n,gamma):
The calculated capture cross section is renormalized, by
overruling the default renormalization to the s-wave strength
function [gar81,tro85]. A normalization factor of 1.0 was used.
- (n,a):
Only two data sets for (n,a) could be found [chi61,maj97].
The calculation was tuned to those data points by altering level
density parameters by maximally 15%. The experimental data is
described within 10%.
- (n,p):
EXFOR contains several discrepant data sets around 14 MeV. This
calculation has been fitted to reproduce the measurement of
[chi61] (by lowering the daughter nucleus level density parameter
at the binding energy by 10%).
##### PARTICLE SPECTRA
For Fe-58, two parameters in the default matrix element
parameterization of [kon04b] for pre-equilibrium reactions had to
be adjusted. The asymptotical value for matrix element at high
energies is multiplied by a factor of 0.3 and the constant for
the energy shift is multiplied by 0.48, to describe the
aforementioned cross sections and emission spectra
[mat92,koz78,vil93,sod95,ban96,mar83]. Furthermore, several state
density parameters have been altered by maximally 15% from the
default Z/15 (N/15).
For high-energy neutron and charged particle spectra, the average
quality is also determined by the pre-equilibrium model and its
global parameterization. Two experiments from the HINDAS project,
for neutron induced reaction spectra at 63 MeV [sly03] and 96 MeV
[lec03], have enabled us to better constrain the results, through
the aforementioned matrix element, for particle yields and
double-differential spectra for all ejectiles up to alpha
particles.
##### RESONANCE RANGE
Reich-Moore resolved resonance parameters covering the energy
range 1.0e-5 eV to 350 keV were re-evaluated by M.C. Moxon [mox05]
under a service agreement with the IAEA (2004).
Thermal cross sections
----------------------
Thermal cross section values are implicit in the resonance
parameters evaluated by M.C. Moxon [mox05]. The 2200 m/s cross
section values for T = 0 are as follows:
Total 8.790 b
Elastic scattering 7.476 b
Radiative capture 1.314 b
(1.30 b [mug03])
(1.31 b [mox02])
The expected 1/v dependence of the capture cross section below
the first positive resonance is accomplished by the addition of
several negative energy resonances. The radiation width of the
first bound level was adjusted so to reproduce the evaluated
thermal capture cross section.
Resolved Resonance Region (up to 350 KeV)
-----------------------------------------
Resonance parameters up to 150 keV originate directly from the
measurements. Between 150 and 350 keV additional resonances for
l=2,3,4 were added so that they reproduce the observed average
capture cross sections. The detailed pointwise cross-section
shapes in this energy range may be incorrect.
The resonance integrals at T=300 K between 0.55 eV and 2 MeV are:
Total 115.5 b
Elastic scattering 113.6 b
Radiative capture 1.246 b
Reich-Moore parameters were determined from the following
sources:
Capture analysis Hockenbury+ [hoc69]
7 - 325 keV Capture & transmission Hong+ [hon77]
0 - 500 keV Transmission analysis Garg+ [gar78]
2.5 - 200 keV Capture analysis Allen+ [all80]
10 - 100 keV " " Kaeppeler+ [kae83]
~ 359 eV Capture analysis Gayther+ [gay76]
230 & 359 eV Capture analysis Borella+ [bor04]
The parameters given in the report by Beer et al [bee78] appear
to be identical to those given in Hong et al's paper. The smooth
cross section in EXFOR is thought to be a calculation using
their fitted parameters.
The EXFOR file lists the total cross section measurement by
Doil'nitsin et al [doi76], but the reference nor any other
details of the measurement could be obtained, so the data were
excluded from the analysis.
Further detail on the adjustments and assumptions on the raw
experimental data can be found in the main reference [mox05].
Unresolved Resonance Region (from 350 KeV to 3 MeV)
---------------------------------------------------
The resonance parameters are adopted from the JEF-2.2 library
for calculating the self-shielding factors only. The average
cross sections are given in file MF3 and originate from the same
analysis as the resolved resonance range by M.C. Moxon [mox05].
Merging resonance analysis and model calculations results
---------------------------------------------------------
There is an inherent discrepancy between the resonance analysis
and nuclear model calculations. Experimental data for Fe-58 in
the resonance range are not abundant, so the extrapolation of
cross sections based on the statistics from the resolved
resonance range is less reliable. It is also well known that
the light nuclei such as Fe-58 are easily deformable and hence
it is quite difficult to obtain accurate model parameters.
These are almost exclusively based on systematics and on the
comparison with neighbouring nuclei, because there is no
experimental data to fix the parameters more rigidly. Some
discrepancy between cross sections predicted from the average
resonance paremeters and nuclear model codes is inevitable.
- Total cross section from resonance analysis is higher by 15%.
- Elastic cross section from nuclear model calculations has a
minimum at around 1 MeV. The cross section from resonance
analysis is monotonic decreasing. The curves cross over at
about 3 MeV.
- The cross sections for the radiative capture have similar
shape, but the one from the resonance analysis is about 15%
lower.
- The inelastic cross section obtained from the resonance
analysis for the first level rises more slowly, but then
remains higher compared to the curve predicted by nuclear
model calculation.
To obtain a file without severe unphysical discontinuities, an
approximate treatment was applied between 2 and 3 MeV on the
above reactions as described in the text below for each reaction.

##### MF1: GENERAL INFORMATION
- MT451 : Descriptive data and directory
This text and the full directory of used MF/MT sections.
##### MF2: RESONANCE PARAMETERS
- MT151 : Resonance parameters
Reich-Moore resolved resonance parameters cover the energy
range 1.0e-5 eV to 350 keV. Unresolved resolved resonance
parameters up to 3 MeV are given only for the calculation of
self-shielding factors; the cross sections above 350 keV are
given in file MF3.
##### MF3: REACTION CROSS SECTIONS
Unless stated otherwise, all the data present in the following
MT-sections have been calculated with TALYS. If the maximal cross
section in an excitation function over the whole energy range
does not exceed 1.e-9 b, the MT-number is not included at all.
Cross sections lower than 1.e-20 b are assumed to have no
physical meaning and are set to zero.
- MT1 : Total cross section
Below 350 keV, resolved resonance parameters are
used. From 350 keV to 2 MeV, the cross section is
calculated from resonance properties extrapolated
from the thermal range. Between 2 and 3 MeV cross
section is defined from the sum of the partials.
- MT2 : Elastic scattering cross section
Below 350 keV the cross section is defined from the
resolved resonance parameters. Between 350 keV and
3 MeV tha average cross section it is obtained from
resonance analysis. Above 3 MeV, it is obtained by
subtracting the non-elastic cross section from the
total.
- MT3 : Non-elastic cross section
Calculated with the optical model over the whole
energy range, except between 350 keV and 3 MeV,
where summation from the contributing reactions is
applied. Note that this is a redundant reaction.
The cross section values below 350 keV are not
given. The user should make sure that the
contributing cross sections are reconstructed from
the resonance parameters and added as necessary.
This reaction is included because the covariances
are available.
- MT4 : Total inelastic cross section
Sum of MT=51-91.
- MT5 : (n,anything) cross section
For energies below 20 MeV, MT5 contains the lumped
(n,gamma x) cross section, where x may represent
neutron, proton, deuteron, triton, Helium-3 or
alpha. Using the relative yields of MF6/MT5, the
(n,gamma n), (n,gamma p), ..., (n,gamma alpha) can
be recovered. These cross sections are relatively
small. However, addition of these cross sections,
which can not be stored in any other MT-number,
ensures that the partial cross sections add up to
the non-elastic cross section. Above 20 MeV, MT5
contains the total non-elastic cross section, with
which the information of MF6/MT5 can be combined to
obtain particle production cross sections and
(double-)differential cross sections.
- MT16 : (n,2n) cross section
- MT17 : (n,3n) cross section
- MT22 : (n,na) cross section
- MT28 : (n,np) cross section
- MT51-70 : (n,n') cross section for 1st-20th excited state
Below 2 MeV MT51 is taken from resonance analysis.
- MT91 : (n,n') continuum cross section
- MT102 : (n,gamma) cross section
Below 350 keV, resonance parameters are used. Between
350 keV and 2 MeV the cross section is taken from the
resonance analysis. At this energy it is practically
identical to the value at 3 MeV from nuclear model
calculation. In this intermediate region, the cross
section is obtained by linear interpolation. Above
3 MeV the values from the model calculation are
adopted.
- MT103 : (n,p) cross section
- MT104 : (n,d) cross section
- MT105 : (n,t) cross section
- MT106 : (n,h) cross section
- MT107 : (n,a) cross section
- MT108 : (n,2a) cross section
- MT600-610: (n,p) cross section for 0th-10th excited state
Obtained by mapping continuum (n,p) cross section
from pre-equilibrium and compound model on discrete
states.
- MT649 : (n,p) continuum cross section
- MT650-655: (n,d) cross section for 0th-5th excited state
Obtained by mapping continuum (n,d) cross section
from pre-equilibrium and compound model on discrete
states.
- MT699 : (n,d) continuum cross section
- MT700-705: (n,t) cross section for 0th-5th excited state
Obtained by mapping continuum (n,t) cross section
from pre-equilibrium and compound model on discrete
states.
- MT749 : (n,t) continuum cross section
- MT750-752: (n,h) cross section for 0th-2nd excited state
Obtained by mapping continuum (n,h) cross section
from pre-equilibrium and compound model on discrete
states.
- MT800-810: (n,a) cross section for 0th-10th excited state
Obtained by mapping continuum (n,a) cross section
from pre-equilibrium and compound model on discrete
states.
- MT849 : (n,a) continuum cross section
##### MF4: ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OF SECONDARY PARTICLES
The versatility of MF6 for the storage of almost any secondary
distribution entails that we only use MF4 for the neutron elastic
scattering distribution. All data are generated with TALYS.
- MT2 : Elastic angular distribution
The flag LTT=3 is used to indicate a switch at 20 MeV from a
Legendre representation to a tabulated representation. For
incident energies below 20 MeV, the Legendre coefficients are
given on a sufficiently precise energy grid. They are a sum of
calculated Legendre coefficients for compound nucleus and
shape-elastic scattering. For incident energies above 20 MeV,
relative angular distributions are tabulated on an angular grid.
##### MF6: PRODUCT ENERGY-ANGLE DISTRIBUTIONS
In MF6 we store all secondary energy, angle, and energy-angle
distributions, as well as all residual and discrete + continuum
photon production cross sections. We thus do not use MF12-15 for
the photon production that accompanies each reaction. All data
are generated with TALYS.
- MT5 : (n,anything) yields and energy-angle distributions
For energies below 20 MeV, MT5 contains the relative yields of
the (n,gamma x) reaction, where x may represent neutron, proton,
deuteron, triton, Helium-3 or alpha. Using the (n,gamma x) cross
section of MF3/MT3, the (n,gamma p), ..., (n,gamma alpha) cross
section can be recovered. For energies above 20 MeV, MT5 contains
the production yields of particles and residual products. It also
contains the secondary energy-angle distributions for all
particles and photons. First, the yields for neutrons are given
for the whole energy range. Next, on a secondary energy grid the
relative emission spectra are given together with the parameters
for the Kalbach systematics for angular distributions. Inelastic
scattering cross sections for discrete states have been broadened
and added to the continuum spectra. This procedure is repeated
for protons, deuterons, tritons, Helium-3, alpha particles and
photons. Finally, the residual production yields are given per
final product. All these yields and relative distributions can
be multiplied with the cross sections given in MF3/MT5 to get
the production cross sections and (double-)differential cross
sections.
- MT16 : (n,2n) energy-angle distr. and photon production
First, for each type of outgoing particle, the (trivial) integer
particle yields are given. Next, on a sufficiently dense incident
energy grid the secondary energy-angle distributions are
specified by means of the relative emission spectra and the
parameters for the Kalbach systematics for angular distributions.
Next, the photon yield is tabulated as a function of incident
energy. For each incident energy, the photon production is given
for all discrete gamma lines present in the final nucleus. A
continuum photon distribution is added to this. We assume
isotropy for all produced gamma rays.
For the following MT-numbers, the same procedure as for MT16 is
followed:
-----
- MT17 : (n,3n) energy-angle distr. and photon production
- MT22 : (n,na) energy-angle distr. and photon production
- MT28 : (n,np) energy-angle distr. and photon production
- MT91 : (n,n') continuum energy-angle distr. and phot. prod.
- MT102 : (n,gamma) photon production
- MT108 : (n,2a) photon production
- MT649 : (n,p) continuum energy-angle distr. and photon prod.
- MT699 : (n,d) continuum energy-angle distr. and photon prod.
- MT749 : (n,t) continuum energy-angle distr. and photon prod.
- MT849 : (n,a) continuum energy-angle distr. and photon prod.
-----
- MT51 : (n,n') angular distribution and photon production
for first excited state
The angular distribution for inelastic scattering to the first
inelastic state is given with Legendre coefficients up to 20 MeV.
Next, the exclusive yields for all the discrete gamma rays that
originate from this particular level are given.
For the following MT-numbers, the same procedure as for MT51 is
followed:
-----
- MT52-70 : (n,n') angular distribution and photon production
for 2nd-20th excited state
- MT600-607: (n,p) angular distribution and photon production
for 0th-7th excited state
- MT650-655: (n,d) angular distribution and photon production
for 0th-5th excited state
- MT700-705: (n,t) angular distribution and photon production
for 0th-5th excited state
- MT750-752: (n,h) angular distribution and photon production
for 0th-2nd excited state
- MT800-810: (n,a) angular distribution and photon production
for 0th-10th excited state
-----
##### MF8: RADIOACTIVE DECAY DATA
For reactions to isomers, MF8 designates where the information
for isomeric versus ground state production can be found, i.e.
for each MT number it points to either MF6, MF9 or MF10.
##### MF10: CROSS SECTIONS FOR PRODUCTION OF RADIOACTIVE NUCLIDES
All data are generated with TALYS. Final states with a lifetime
that exceeds 1 second are treated as isomer.

*********** Covariances from ENDF/B-VI.8 ***********************
An LB=8 section is included for all non-derived files as
required by ENDF/B-VI.
33-1 Uncertainties are derived from 1.E-5 to 100 eV. From 100
eV to 20 MeV they are explicit, using LB=0,1 and 8.
33-2 From 1.E-5 to 100 eV, uncertainties are explicit, based
upon thermal uncertainty and other data. From 100 eV to
20 MeV the files are derived.
33-3 From 1.E-5 to 400 keV uncertainties are derived. From 400
keV to 20 MeV uncertainties are explicit, using LB=1 and 8
33-4 Uncertainties are all derived.
33-16 Uncertainties for (n,2n) are explicit, estimated from TNG.
33-22 Uncertainties for (n,n alpha) are explicit, estimated
from TNG.
33-28 Uncertainties for (n,np) are explicit, estimated from TNG.
33-51 through 91 Uncertainties for inelastic scattering are
explicit, based on data and calculation uncertainties.
33-102 Uncertainties are explicit, based on thermal data at low
energies, data of (7) for energies up to 2.0 MeV, and
TNG at energies above 2.0 MeV.
33-103 (n,p) Covariances were estimated from data and TNG.
33-107 (n,alpha) Uncertainties estimated from data and TNG.
