Skyshine analysis using various nuclear data files

The calculations of the spacial distributions of dose rate for neutron and secondary photons, thermal neutron fluxes and space-energy distributions of neutron and photons near the air-ground interface were performed by MCNP and DORT codes. Different nuclear data files were used (ENDF/B-IV, ENDF/B-VI, FENDL-2, JENDL-3.2). Either the standard pointwise libraries (MCNP) or special libraries prepared by NJOY code from ENDF/B and others' files were used. Prepared multigroup coupled neutron and photon cross sections libraries for DORT code had CASK-40 group energy structures. The libraries contain pointwise or multigroup cross sections data for all elements included in the atmosphere and ground composition. The validation of the calculated results was performed with using the experimental data obtained for the series of measurements at RA reactor. (author)
