TL;DR
The IRDFF-II library provides a comprehensive, validated set of nuclear data for neutron metrology applications up to 60 MeV, supporting research, safety, and fusion development.
Contribution
This paper introduces IRDFF-II, a new neutron metrology library with extensive validation, covering fission and fusion applications, and including detailed reaction data and benchmark validation.
Findings
Contains 119 metrology reactions and 4 cover material reactions.
Includes validation data from 29 neutron benchmark fields.
Provides recommended decay data for 68 activation products.
Abstract
High quality nuclear data is the most fundamental underpinning for all neutron metrology applications. This paper describes the release of version II of the International Reactor Dosimetry and Fusion File (IRDFF-II) that contains a consistent set of nuclear data for fission and fusion neutron metrology applications up to 60~MeV neutron energy. The library is intended to support: a) applications in research reactors; b) safety and regulatory applications in the nuclear power generation in commercial fission reactors; and c) material damage studies in support of the research and development of advanced fusion concepts. The paper describes the contents of the library, documents the thorough verification process used in its preparation, and provides an extensive set of validation data gathered from a wide range of neutron benchmark fields. The new \mbox{IRDFF-II} library includes 119…
