Reevaluation of the F-19 resonance parameters in the energy range 
up 1 MeV done by  L. C. Leal, H. Derrien (and) N. M. Greene (ORNL)
                                                                  
Reevalaution of the F-19 cross sections up to 1 MeV.  Resoanance  
parameters were obtained with the computer code SAMMY by          
fitting three transmission measurements of Larson with thicknesses
of 0.13093 at/b, 0.016886 at/b, and 0.024184 at/b, respectively,  
measured on the 80-m flight path at the Oak Ridge Linear (ORELA)  
Accelerator, one capture cross section of Guber measure up to     
700 keV and one inelastic cross section measumrement of Broder up 
to 1 MeV. The result of the resonance analysis is a set of        
resonance parameters containing thirty-five resonances which one  
resonance is negative to account for the bound levels and three   
lies above the cutoff energy of 1 MeV to account for the effect   
for the truncated resonances above 1 MeV. The 31 resonances in the
the energy range up to 1 MeV are 2 s-wave, 5 p-wave, 17 d-wave,   
and 7 f-wave.  In the energy up 1 MeV F-19 has inelastic channels 
starting at the energies 109.9 keV with spin 1/2- and 197.2 keV   
with spin 5/2+.  These two channels were included in the Reich-   
Moore evalaution with SAMMY. At the present time, cross section   
processing codes do not have capability to include inelastic      
channels.  Therefore, the evaluation presented here is the        
pointwise cross section processed with SAMMY.  The resonance      
parameters evaluation will be released  as soon as the processing 
codes are able to process Reich-Moore parameters with inelastic   
channels.                                                         
                                                                  
The cross sections at 300 K at thermal are the following:

 ENDF/B-VI MOD 2 Revision (S.C.Frankle, R.C.Reedy, P.G.Young,     
                 J. Campbell, R. Little (LANL) August, 2001       
                                                                  
   The secondary gamma-ray spectrum for radiative capture (MF 12, 
 MT 102) has been updated for new experimental data at incident   
 neutron energies up to 200 keV. The Q-value for radiative capture
 was also updated in File 3.  Details of these changes are        
 described in Frankle et al. [Fr01].                              
   Note that the radiative capture data were changed from pure    
 continuum data in MF=6, MT=102, to discrete plus continuum data  
 in MF=12,14,15, MT=102.  The continuum spectra above 200 keV are 
 unchanged from MOD 1, but the yields were modified slightly in   
 MF=12,MT102 for energy conservation.  The thermal neutron photon 
 production spectrum is comprised of 168 discrete photons.        
                                                                  
   Two negative probability values (MF=6 MT=28 and MF=6 MT=107)   
 were changed (update of August 2001):                            
 -5.08530e-12 -> 5.08530e-12  and -1.3263e-7 -> 1.3263e-7

 This evaluation is based on measured data available on csisrs    
 and a theoretical calculation using the TNG statistical and      
 precompound theory code [SH86,FU88].

       section and the capture cross section.                     
     10 Ev to 2.0 MeV: Calculated from a set of resonance         
     parameters which were adjusted to fit the high

   SECTION 102. (N,GAMMA) REACTION                                
     1.0E-05 eV to 2.0 MeV: Calculated by SAMMY code using a set  
     of resonance parameters used in the calculation for total    
     cross sections, but gamma-widths were adjusted to fit the    
     measured data of Macklin [MA63] and Gabbard [GA59].          
     Above 2.0 MeV, capture cross sections are very small so 1/E  
     is used to extrapolate to 20 MeV.

     Calculated from systematics [ZH88].                          
     The excitation function was normalized to 22 mb given by     
     integrating early angular distribution data of Fazio [FA68], 
     and [RE68] at 14 MeV.                                        
   SECTION 105. (N,T) REACTION                                    
     Calculated from systematics [ZH88]. The excitation function  
     was normalized to spectrum averaged measured data of Qaim    
     [QA78].                                                      
   SECTION 107. (N,A) REACTION                                    
     For energies < 9.0 MeV, ENDF/B-V remains unchanged.

   SECTION 2. ELASTIC SCATTERING                                  
     The Legendre coefficients are calculated by the GENOA        
     optical model code [PE67] with compound cross sections       
     and Legendre coefficients calculated by TNG as input.        
     Before calculation, optical model parameters were adjusted   
     to fit measured angular distributions of Baba [BA85] and     
     Clarke [CL70]. Same optical model parameters were used in    
     TNG, DWUCK and GENOA calculations.                           
   SECTIONS 51-71. INELASTIC SCATTERING                           
     The cross sections CS(D), Legendre coefficients FL(D)        
     contributed from direct interaction were calculated by       
     DWUCK and CS(S), FL(S) are from statistical model by         
     TNG, using

 FILE 6. DOUBLE DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTIONS(DDCS)                 
   The cross sections for all sections were obtained based on     
   TNG calculations for the first outgoing neutrons only.  For    
   the second outgoing neutrons and both the first and second     
   outgoing charged particles, the angular distributions were     
     assumed isotropic. Recoil spectra are generated as the       
     calculated particle spectra were inverted to the laboratory  
     system.

     Same as ENDF/B-V but supplemented a sub-subsection of LB=8   
     for every section.

   SECTIONS 4,16,22 AND 28:                                       
     Calculated  from a covariance matrix of theoretical          
     parameters (several most sensitive parameters were chosen    
     as follows: energy level density parameters for 19F, 19O     
     and 16N; optical model parameters for 19F: V0 and W for      
     real and imaginary well depths, RU and RW for the radius     
     of real and imaginary potential).  The covariance matrix     
     for theoretical parameters was estimated based on scatter    
     of measured data available around theoretical values and     
     systematic error of measured data. A sub-subsection of LB=8  
     is also given for every section.

     [ZH88]. A sub-subsection of LB=8 is also given for every
