ZZ DLC-10B AVKER, Neutron Kerma Response Function Data Library

Description

1 - Nature of physical problem solved: Number of groups: Kerma factors at 816 energy points within the energy range 0.023 eV to 19.2 MeV or as kerma factors for a specified group structure. Nuclides: H, Li-6, Li-7, Be, C, N, O, F, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Fe, and Nb. Origin: O5R and ENDF/B libraries except for P and F. Weighting spectrum: Flat or 1/E. The original library was compiled for use in computing energy release in tissue and heating in various materials. The elements compiled for the first library are H, 6-Li, 7-Li, Be, C, N, O, F, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Fe, and Nb. The cross sections used were based on the O5R and ENDF/B libraries except for P, which the authors of ref. 1 compiled, and F which came from GAM-2. 2 - Method of solution: The quantity kerma (kinetic energy release in material) is evaluated by an integration over energy of the product of the kerma factor and flux density at any spatial position
