Modified Monte Carlo program for SAND-II with solution weighting and error analysis
Description
In previous versions of the SAND-II and Monte Carlo codes, uncertainty data for both measured activities and cross sections were used only in a statistical sense for error propagation studies. These versions used an equal uncertainty procedure for weighting each foil. An in-depth study is presented of different weighting procedures utilizing available uncertainty data to obtain a ''most appropriate'' SAND-II solution flux spectrum. Based on this study, an improved and modified SAND-II Monte Carlo code has been developed. Development of the new code was based on extensive computer runs involving data from 21 foils irradiated in CFRMF as a part of the Interlaboratory LMFBR Reaction Rate (ILRR) program
