Abstract

This paper presents the reanalysis of the PROFIL and TRAPU irradiation experiments, performed at the French fast reactor PHENIX, using new detailed information and a sophisticated calculational strategy. The analysis used the cross-section data coming from five different data files: JEF2.2, JEF3.0, ENDF/B-V, ENDF/B-VI, and a preliminary version of ENDF/B-VII. The observed discrepancies between calculations and experiments have been subsequently used for a four energy band preliminary adjustment that has indicated trends for future improvements of minor actinide cross sections.
