Description

The paper presents a preliminary uncertainty analysis related to potential uncertainties on the fission spectrum data. Consistent results are shown for a reference fast reactor design configuration and for experimental thermal configurations. However, the results obtained indicate the need for further analysis, in particular in terms of fission spectrum uncertainty data assessment.
