- PublicationThe joint evaluated fission and fusion nuclear data library, JEFF-3.32020
; AbstractThe joint evaluated fission and fusion nuclear data library 3.3 is described. New evaluations for neutron-induced interactions with the major actinides$$^{235}\hbox {U}$$235U,$$^{238}\hbox {U}$$238Uand$$^{239}\hbox {Pu}$$239Pu, on$$^{241}\hbox {Am}$$241Amand$$^{23}\hbox {Na}$$23Na,$$^{59}\hbox {Ni}$$59Ni, Cr, Cu, Zr, Cd, Hf, W, Au, Pb and Bi are presented. It includes new fission yields, prompt fission neutron spectra and average number of neutrons per fission. In addition, new data for radioactive decay, thermal neutron scattering, gamma-ray emission, neutron activation, delayed neutrons and displacement damage are presented. JEFF-3.3 was complemented by files from the TENDL project. The libraries for photon, proton, deuteron, triton, helion and alpha-particle induced reactions are from TENDL-2017. The demands for uncertainty quantification in modeling led to many new covariance data for the evaluations. A comparison between results from model calculations using the JEFF-3.3 library and those from benchmark experiments for criticality, delayed neutron yields, shielding and decay heat, reveals that JEFF-3.3 performes very well for a wide range of nuclear technology applications, in particular nuclear energy.
