5.2.11. Options for low energy neutrons

The following parameters are used for neutrons with energies less than 20 MeV.

Table 5.2.91 emcnf

Value

Explanation

(D=0.0)
Threshold energy for neutron capture [MeV]:
implicit capture is considered above this energy; analog capture is considered below this energy.
Table 5.2.92 nonu

Value

Explanation

(D=1)
Options for fission neutrons
=0
Turn off fission: fission is treated as simple capture.
=1
Normal fission producing neutrons.
Table 5.2.93 isaba

Value

Explanation

(D=0)
Option for \(S(\alpha,\beta)\) .
=0
No interpolation.
=1
Perform interpolation of the data of \(S(\alpha,\beta)\) , which should be specified for calculations with thin targets in which particle scattering rarely occurs.
Table 5.2.94 isans

Value

Explanation

(D=0)
Option for small angle neutron scattering (SANS) in thermal neutron scattering library.
=0
No SANS model.
=1
Activates the SANS model included in the thermal scattering file. Requires a special thermal scattering file with the SANS parameters.
