III. OTHER HUCLEAR DATA ACTIVITY<br />
Generation of Way Multigroup Cross Section Sot for Various<br />
Materials for Fast Reactor Applications<br />
(M.M.Ramnnadhan, V.Gopalakrishnan, S.Ganesan)<br />
Using the <strong>Nuclear</strong> <strong>Data</strong> Processing Code system RAMBHA<br />
developed at RRC, Kalpakkant, multigroup cross sections were<br />
generated from the basic data library ENDF/B-XV for various<br />
elements* The isotopes covered thus far Include the following:<br />
Cr, Ni, Ha, 0, C, Al, Si, No, Mn and Ga<br />
Ibe multigroup cross section data of these elements are considered<br />
'improved* compared to our earlier set due to the following<br />
improvements in the processing code system that is used for multigrouping:<br />
1. Abandoning the resonance integral method, the infinite<br />
dilution cross section computed using the code system<br />
LXNEAR-MBCENT-KEX1 2 which is the most suited for ENDF/B<br />
type of basic data representation*<br />
2. Abandoning the J* method of Hwang, the shielded cross<br />
sections are obtained using the code system LINEAR-RECENT-<br />
REJC2 in the resolved resonance region.<br />
o<br />
3* The LXNEAR-RECEHT-RE3C1 code system also improves the<br />
elastic removal cross section in the resonance region*<br />
These new infinite dilution group cross sections were<br />
compared in detail (groupwiae, reactionwise and materialwise)<br />
with the 1969 adjusted French multigroup cross section set using<br />
the program COMPLOT and this comparison not only brought out<br />
the differences due to Improvement in our own processing code<br />
system but also the significant changes in the basic cross<br />
section data itself, thanks to improved differential data base*<br />
The groupwise and reactionwise comparisons of these
