Processing and benchmarking of evaluated nuclear data file/b-viii.0b4 cross-section library by analysis of a series of critical experimental benchmark using the monte carlo code MCNP(X) and NJOY2016
The results obtained with the ENDF/BVIII.0b4 library were compared against those calculated with ENDF/B-VI.8, ENDF/B-VII.0, and ENDF/BVII.1 libraries using the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP(X)) code. All the MCNP(X) calculations of keff values with these four libraries were compared with the experimentally measured results, which are available in the International Critically Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project. The obtained results are discussed and analyzed in this paper.
