Machines used: Package-ID Orig.Computer Test Computer IAEA1420/01 IBM PC,PC Windows PC Windows

3. DESCRIPTION -
This test library can be used for a number of code systems in the analysis of Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS).

The library is restricted to those materials needed for benchmarking efforts linked to short and mid-term ADS experimental results and design concepts. The 30 materials selected and the upper energy limit of the evaluation of each of them is given in parentheses.

ORIGIN: JEFF3.1

NEUTRON WEIGHTING SPECTRUM:
standard PWR spectrum included in the GROUPR module of NJOY, modified in
such a way that follows the 1/E shape from 4.0 Ev to 9.811 KeV and from 10 to
20 MeV.

BACKGROUND SCATTERING:
sigma-0, between 5 and 10, depending on the nuclide in the range 1-10E10.

LEGENDRE ORDER:
P-6 for transport correction to P-5.

4. METHODS - Processing was carried out using NJOY-99.90 with the local updates at IAEA-NDS. The resulting processed files are available in ACE format for Monte Carlo transport calculations and in MATXS format for deterministic transport calculations.

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME - The execution times depend on the number of the new materials to be processed.
