ENDF/B-VIII.1: Neutron Reaction Sublibrary

The neutrons sublibrary aims to describe nuclear reactions between incident neutron particles and different nuclei. For ENDF/B-VIII.1, many neutron files were re-evaluated or received major changes. A new 239Pu evaluation was jointly-produced by IAEA, LANL, LLNL and ORNL bringing important updates to fission neutron multiplicity, Prompt Fission Neutron Spectrum, resonance and fast regions. Around one third of the new neutron evaluations were performed as part of the INDEN collaboration, including 16,18 O, 19 F, 28,29,30 Si, 63,65 Cu, 50,51,52,53,54 Cr, 55 Mn, 54,56,57 Fe, 139 La, 233,235,238 U, 240,241 Pu. Important non-INDEN evaluations include 234,236 U, 206,207,208 Pb, 181 Ta, 88 Sr, 140,142 Ce, Pt and Dy isotopes, and many others. Also, dosimetry reactions from IRDFF-II were adopted for many materials.

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Neutron Induced Fission Product Yields Sublibrary

The neutron-induced fission yields (NFY) sublibray aims to describe fission yields in neutron-induced reactions. For ENDF/B-VIII.1, there were no new fission yields complete evaluations. However, an important fix the 241 Pu NFY file was implemented, solving a long-standing anomalous discontinuity issue accidentally introduced in ENDF/B-VI.2, decades ago. Additionally, many erroneously large uncertainties, present in NFY from ENDF/B-VIII.0, were corrected.

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Photoatomic Reaction Sublibrary

The photo-atomic sublibrary aims to describe atomic photon cross section data, corresponding to the interaction between photons and the different atoms. For ENDF/B-VIII.1 we adopted the EPICS2023 EPDL evaluations.

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Proton Reaction Sublibrary

The protons sublibrary aims to describe nuclear reactions between incident proton particles and different nuclei. For ENDF/B-VIII.1, compared to ENDF/B-VIII.0, there were only evaluation updates for 4 He.

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Spontaneous Fission Product Yields Reaction Sublibrary

The spontaneous fission yields (SFY) sublibray aims to describe fission yields that happen spontaneous, without any incident particle. For ENDF/B-VIII.1, there were no new fission yields complete evaluations. However, many erroneously large uncertainties, present in both SFY from ENDF/B-VIII.0, were corrected.

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Neutron Standards Sublibrary

The neutron standards sublibrary describes specific reaction cross sections, in a limited range, that are so well-known that they are used as ratios or references in other measurements. ENDF/B-VIII.1 remains unchanged from ENDF/B-VIII.0 for the neutron standards sublibrary

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Thermal Neutron Scattering Sublibrary

The thermal neutron scattering law (TSL) sublibrary aims to describe the interaction of incident neutrons at thermal or sub-thermal energies with different compound materials such fuels, moderators and special-purpose materials. In ENDF/B-VIII.1 there was a large number of new and updated TSL evaluations, including traditional moderators (light water, Beryllium metal, Beryllium Oxide, Calcium Hydride, plastics (Polystyrene and Lucite), graphite (reactor-grade and crystalline), anhydrous Hydrogen Fluoride, and heavy paraffinic oil); exotic moderators (Beryllium Carbide, Zirconium Hydride, Yttrium Hydride, Lithium-7 Hydride and Deuteride), FLiBe molten salt, structural materials and cladding (Silicon Carbide, Silicon Dioxide, Zirconium Carbide), fuels (Plutonium Dioxide, Uranium Carbide, Uranium metal, Uranium Nitride, Uranium Dioxide, Uranium Hydride), and special purpose materials. In ENDF/B-VIII.1 we also distribute alongside the evaluated files, a comma-separated file (CSV), named TSL_MAT_numbers.csv, which lists all evaluated files in the current release and their corresponding unique MAT number.

ENDF/B-VIII.1: Triton Reaction Sublibrary

The tritons sublibrary aims to describe nuclear reactions between incident triton particles and different nuclei. For ENDF/B-VIII.1, compared to ENDF/B-VIII.0, there were only evaluation updates for 4 He.

Novel methods for TH-229 production through fast neutron irradiation of TH-23F0 and charged particle irradiation of Th-230 and Th-232. Final Report DE-SC0020140

The activities and results of research related to accelerator production of Pa and Th isotopes via bombardment of 230 Th and 232 Th targets are described herein. This research was supported through DOE grant DE-SC0020140 and was conducted in collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Cross section measurements, transport model and nuclear physics model calculations are presented. Highlights include the first ever measurements of 229 Pa, two publications, and graduation of a PhD student.
