The AMPX-2000 Operating System for Producing Continuous Energy and Multi-Group Cross Sections from Basic Data Libraries Using the ENDF/B-6 Formats

Description

AMPX-2000 is a modular system of FORTRAN computer programs that relate to nuclear analysis with a primary emphasis on tasks associated with the production and use of multigroup and continuous energy cross-sections. AMPX-2000 accepts basic cross-section data from ENDF/B libraries. As opposed to previous versions of AMPX, the current version processes the latest ENDF/B version VI formats. AMPX-2000 can be used to generate a variety of multigroup libraries that can be used with modern transport codes to perform nuclear analyses. Continuous energy or ''point'' cross-section libraries can be produced for use in Monte Carlo codes and other applications. In addition, AMPX has an internal multigroup format that can be read by various AMPX modules as well as codes outside the system
