The Intra-Nuclear Cascade model employed into general-purpose Monte-Carlo simulation codes is not always applicable in the energy region from 20 MeV to several hundreds of MeV. In order to improve accuracy of the Monte-Carlo simulations including this energy region, the fourth version of Japanese Evaluated Nuclear Data Library High Energy File (JENDL-4.0/HE) as a new special purpose file, was released in 2015. It includes evaluated cross-sections for incident neutrons and protons up to 200 MeV for 130 and 133 nuclei, respectively. A Compact version of ENDF (ACE) library of all the neutronand proton-induced reaction data for the MCNP, MCNPX and PHITS codes has been produced with the nuclear data processing code NJOY2016.9, which was modified to keep laboratory angle-energy distribution form (LAW=67) in the ACE library of proton because the original NJOY converts laboratory angle-energy distribution form (LAW=67) to continuum energy-angle distribution form (LAW=61) automatically and PHITS can only treat angle-energy distribution form (LAW=67) for proton. Validations for the ACE library were performed through benchmark calculations for high-energy shielding experiments with PHITS.
