In the first method, these files were used directly to yield processed library preserving all the correlations among different physical quantities. In the second method, the random files populated by T6 were used but the angular distribution data were kept fixed to the non-perturbed nominal ones. It was found that the two methods gave the same neutron reaction rate after the 608 mm penetration of a copper, however uncertainty of the second method was larger than that of the first method. It shows that the correlation between total cross section and angular distribution of elastic scattering at 0 degree, which stems from Wick’s inequality, affects uncertainty of the calculated neutron reaction rate. The result is consistent with the case of 28Si on deep penetration of thick concrete problem previously reported by the authors. It could be concluded that the uncertainty obtained by using the covariance files given in the ENDF-6 format may not give correct results for the uncertainty of neutron penetration calculation.","PeriodicalId":11731,"journal":{"name":"EPJ Web of Conferences","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80929215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We reported static and dynamic methods in which the potential energy surface of the fissioning nucleus concerning the quadrupole and octupole deformations are used. Although the static method deduced the charge polarization which indicates the nuclei with the magic number and the octupole deformation, the quantities are not consistent with the existing data library (Wahl’s systematics). The dynamic method with the iso-energy initial condition on the potential energy surface showed the finite charge polarization of light and heavy fission fragments which is consistent with the data library.

It will provide physicists with high luminosity and highly polarized beams with a wide range of nuclei species at different energies, covering an extensive kinematic range. The EIC physics goals include measuring the Generalized Parton Distribution (GPD) from Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) and Deeply Virtual Meson Production (DVMP) experiments, performing precision 3D imaging of the nuclei structure, studying color confinement and hadronization mechanisms, and understanding the spin structure of the proton. In order to meet the physics goals of EIC, a highresolution electromagnetic calorimeter (EMCAL) is required to measure electrons and photons and to achieve good particle identification. We propose to develop a tungsten/shashlik (W/shashlik) EMCAL with better readout configuration to achieve better energy and position resolution.

When nuclear data are evaluated with underlying nuclear reaction models, model parameters are expected to synthesize all the information that is extracted from the experimental data they are adjusted on. When dealing with models with a small number of parameters compared to the number of experimental data points – e.g. in resonant cross section analysis – one sometimes faces excessively small evaluated uncertainty compared for instance with model/experimental data agreement. To solve this issue, an attempt was to propagate the uncertainty coming from experimental parameters involved in the data reduction process on the nuclear physics model parameters. It pushed experimentalists to separately supply random (statistical) and systematic uncertainties. It also pushed evaluators to include or mimic the data reduction process in the evaluation. In this way experimental parameters – also called nuisance parameters – could be used to increase evaluated parameter uncertainty through marginalization techniques. Two of these methods: Matrix and Bayesian marginalizations – respectively called sometimes Analytical and Monte-Carlo Marginalizations – that are currently used for evaluation will be discussed here and some limitations highlighted. A third alternative method, also based on a Bayesian approach but using the spectral decomposition of the correlation matrix, is also presented on a toy model, and on a a simple case of resonant cross section analysis.","PeriodicalId":11731,"journal":{"name":"EPJ Web of Conferences","volume":"197 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79858262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Potentially unabsorbed millimetre wave power after the first pass through the plasma is redirected towards the plasma centre. This increases the efficiency of heating schemes with reduced single pass absorption like O-2 or X-3. In order to monitor beam position and power, thermocouples were installed into the gratings. A numerical model was developed to evaluate the beam intensity during short pulses from the thermocouple measurement in a non-stationary environment. An experiment was carried out, where only the X-3 resonance is present in the plasma, and the millimetre wave beam shine-through was measured successfully as a function of the central plasma electron temperature. This allows to deduce the X-3 absorption experimentally. Scanning the launching angles, it seems possible to measure the 2D beam cross section after the first pass through the plasma.","PeriodicalId":11731,"journal":{"name":"EPJ Web of Conferences","volume":"100 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80441138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the attractive qualities of naturally occurring Zr isotopes is that they have a low σγ/σt ratio at most neutron energies. Thus, they improve the neutron economy in reactors by preferentially scattering neutrons rather than absorbing them. This same quality also presents a challenge to measuring the capture cross section, σγ, of Zr isotopes. The ENDF/B-VIII.0 library has a relative uncertainty of approximately 10–20% for incident neutron energies < 0.1 MeV and an uncertainty greater than 20% for energies > 0.1 MeV for the majority of natural Zr isotopes. This motivated the Nuclear Criticality Safety Program to embark on a campaign to accurately measure and evaluate these Zr isotopes.

Fission yield evaluations represent the synthesis of experimental and theoretical knowledge in order to perform the best estimation of independent fission yields. Today, the lack of correlations between the different fission observables induces several inconsistencies in the evaluations. Different works proposed to estimate the correlations of the independent fission yields satisfying the consistency to the chain yield evaluations. Nevertheless, none of them introduces a prior correlations of the independent and chain evaluations in the evaluation process. Covariance matrix of fission yields depends on the evaluation method used according to the kinds of existing measurements. The consistency is deeply entangled to the statistical agreement between each dataset considering the covariance of measurements. Moreover, covariance of model parameters does not represent the only contribution to the evaluation covariance matrix. Thus, a new evaluation process is crucial to provide a complete and coherent evaluation file.
