AMPX MG library of JENDL-4.0

Konno, Chikara  

SCALE6.2.1 was released in 2016 and has been used worldwide. It includes new AMPX format files (AMPX MG libraries) of ENDF/B-VII.0 and ENDF/B-VII.1 and a new nuclear data processing code AMPX-6, which produces AMPX MG libraries. Thus we produce an AMPX MG library of JENDL-4.0 in order to disseminate JENDL-4.0. Neutron and spectra inside an iron or other material sphere of 1 m in radius with a 20 MeV neutron source at the center were calculated with a one-dimensional Sn code ANISN for testing the JENDL-4.0 AMPX MG library. As a result, it was verified that the JENDL-4.0 AMPX MG library had no problems. Note that the self-shielding correction for AMPX MG libraries was still inadequate in shielding calculations.
