HISTORY
95-02 New evaluation was made by T.Nakagawa. STAPRE calculation
was performed by Konshin /Ko95/.
00-10 Compiled by T.Nakagawa.
MF=1 General information
MT=451 Descriptive data
MT=452 Number of neutrons per fission
Sum of MT=455 and 456.
MT=455 Delayed neutrons per fission
Tuttle's systematics /Tu79/ was adopted.
MT=456 Prompt neutrons per fission
Obtained from Howerton's sytematics /Ho77/.
MF=2 Resonance parameters
MT=151
No resonance parameters were given.
Thermal cross sections and resonance integral (barns)
0.0253 eV resonance int.
Total 181.4 -
Elastic 11.4 -
Fission 20 46.6
Capture 150 851
MF=3 Neutron cross sections
Below 0.4 eV
The capture is based on the data of Landrum et al./La72/
The elastic scattering cross section of 11.4 b is the shape
elastic scattering calculated with optical model code
CASTHY/Ig91/. The fission cross section is assumed to be
similar to that of Pu-238.
Above 0.4 eV
Three codes of CASTHY/Ig91/, ECIS/Ra00/ and STAPRE/Uh76/
were used.
Parameters (MeV, fm) of deformed potential/Ko93/ for ECIS:
V = 46.03 - 0.3*E
W-d = 3.05 + 0.4*E 0 =< E =< 10 MeV
= 7.05 - 0.082*(E-10) 10 < E <=20 MeV
W-v = 8.0/(1+exp(-(E-50)/10))
V-so= 6.2
r-r = 1.26 a-r = 0.63
r-d = 1.26 a-d = 0.52
r-so= 1.12 a-so= 0.47
beta-2 = 0.204 beta-4 =0.051
The spherical potential parameters/Ig85/ used in CASTHY:
V = 45.036 - 0.3*E, r-r = 1.256, a-r = 0.626
W-d = 4.115 + 0.4*E, r-d = 1.260, a-d = 0.555+0.0045*E
V-so= 7.5, r-so= 1.256, a-so= 0.626
Level density parameters used in CASTHY:
a(1/MeV) T(MeV) delta(MeV) E-x(MeV) spin-cutoff
Np-235 30.4 0.38 0.7828 3.929 30.66
Np-236 28.0 0.35 0.0 2.258 20.50
STAPRE calculation is described in Ko95.
MT=1 Total
Calculated with CASTHY.
MT=2 Elastic scattering
Calculated as the (total) - (sum of partial) cross sections.
MT=4, 51-91 Inelastic scattering
Compound process was calculated with CASTHY, and direct one
with ECIS.

Levels above 750 keV were assumed to be overlapping.
The direct process was calculated with ECIS for the levels
marked with *, and the compound process with CASTHY.
MT=16,17 (n,2n) and (n,3n) reactions
Calculated with STAPRE.
MT=18 Fission
Based on the calculation with STAPRE and systematics of the
fission cross section shape.
MT=102 capture
Calculated with CASTHY. The direct and semi-direct cross
section was calculated with DSD /Ka99/.
MF=4 Angular distributions of secondary neutrons
MT=2 Elastic scattering
Calculated with ECIS.
MT=16,17, 18 (n,2n), (n,3n) and Fission
Assumed to be isotopic in the laboratory system.
MT=51-91 Inelastic scattering
Calculated with CASTHY and ECIS.
MF=5 Energy distributions of secondary neutrons
MT=16, 17, 91
Calculated with EGNASH /Ya90/.
MT=18
Evaporation spectrum with nuclear temperature obtained from
the systematics of Smith et al. /Sm79/ and Howerton and Doyas
/Ho71/. The ratios of multi-chance fission to total were
estimated from the STAPRE calculation/Ko95/.
