PURPOSE Legend
------- Legend
CALCULATE LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE TABULATED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS Legend
STARTING FROM DATA IN THE ENDF/B FORMAT. ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS Legend
MAY BE DESCRIBED IN THE ENDF/B FORMAT IN ONE OF THREE WAYS. Legend
FOR EACH OF THESE THREE FORMS THE USER MAY CHOOSE (SEE, INPUT Legend
OPTIONS) TO EITHER COPY EACH TYPE OF DATA OR TO PROCESS IT AT Legend
AS FOLLOWS, Legend
Legend
(1) ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION IS ISOTROPIC AT ALL ENERGIES (LTT=0) Legend
------------------------------------------------------------- Legend
IN THIS CASE THE INPUT DATA DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY ANGULAR Legend
DISTRIBUTIONS. A SECTION MERELY CONTAINS A FLAG TO INDICATE Legend
THE ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION IS ISOTROPIC AT ALL ENERGIES. IN THIS Legend
CASE THE SECTION IS OUTPUT IN EXACTLY THE SAME FORM IN WHICH IT Legend
WAS READ FROM THE INPUT. Legend
Legend
(2) ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS GIVEN BY LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS (LTT=1) Legend
---------------------------------------------------------------- Legend
LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS ARE GIVEN AT A SERIES OF ENERGIES. AN Legend
INTERPOLATION LAW IS GIVEN BETWEEN ENERGIES. THE INTERPOLATION Legend
LAW BETWEEN ENERGIES IS COPIED AS INPUT (I.E., NO ATTEMPT IS Legend
MADE TO LINEARIZE THE VARIATION WITH ENERGY). FOR EACH ENERGY AT Legend
WHICH LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS ARE GIVEN A LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE Legend
ANGULAR DISITRIBUTION IS RECONSTRUCTED IN THE SYSTEM IN WHICH THE Legend
THE COEFFICIENTS ARE GIVEN (I.E., CM OR LAB - NO ATTEMPT IS MADE Legend
TO CONVERT FROM ONE SYSTEM TO THE OTHER). A MAXIMUM OF 50 LEGENDRE Legend
COEFFICIENTS IS ALLOWED. REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF COEFFICIENTS Legend
INPUT THE PROGRAM WILL ONLY USE COEFFICIENTS UP TO THE LAST ORDER Legend
AT WHICH THE COEFFICIENTS ARE NON-ZERO (E.G. IF COEFFICIENTS P1 Legend
THROUGH P12 ARE READ, BUT P9=P10=P11=P12=0.0, THE PROGRAM WILL Legend
ONLY USE COEFFICIENTS UP TO P8). IF OVER 50 NON-ZERO COEFFICIENTS Legend
ARE READ ONLY THE FIRST 50 WILL BE USED. Legend
Legend
(2) ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS IS TABULATED (LTT=2) Legend
---------------------------------------------------------------- Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS ARE GIVEN AT A SERIES OF ENERGIES. AN Legend
INTERPOLATION LAW IS GIVEN BETWEEN ENERGIES AND A SECOND Legend
INTERPOLATION LAW IS GIVEN AT EACH ENERGY TO INTERPOLATE BETWEEN Legend
THE POINTS IN EACH TABULATED DISTRIBUTION. AT EACH ENERGY THE Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION WILL BE CONVERTED TO LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE Legend
FORM. THE INTERPOLATION BETWEEN ENERGIES IS OUTPUT EXACTLY AS Legend
INPUT. THE INTERPOLATION LAW AT EACH ENERGY IS OUTPUT TO INDICATE Legend
THE NOW LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION. Legend
Legend
(3) LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS AND TABULATED (LTT=3) Legend
---------------------------------------------------------------- Legend
ENDF-102 SAYS THIS SHOULD BE LTT=4, BUT ALL OF THE EVALUATIONS Legend
IN ENDF/B-VI, RELEASE 7, USE LTT=3? THIS CODE WILL TREAT THESE Legend
AS LTT=4 - SEE BELOW. Legend
Legend
(4) LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS AND TABULATED (LTT=4) Legend
---------------------------------------------------------------- Legend
THIS IS A COMBINATION OF (1) AND (2) DESCRIBED ABOVE. THE Legend
LEGENDRE DATA IS ALWAYS GIVEN FIRST, FOR LOWER ENERGIES, Legend
FOLLOWED BY TABULATED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS, FOR HIGHER ENERGIES. Legend
Legend
THIS TYPE OF DATA CAN ONLY BE COPIED OR ALL CONVERTED TO Legend
TABULATED (LTT=2). Legend
Legend
POINT VALUES - NORMALIZED VS. UNNORMALIZED Legend
------------------------------------------------------------------ Legend
THE VALUE OF AN ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION AT ANY COSINE WILL BE Legend
CORRECTLY CALCULATED BY THIS CODE, BASED EITHER DIRECTLY ON THE Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION, OR ON THE SUM OF THE CONTRIBUTING LEGENDRE Legend
MOMENTS. Legend
Legend
ENDF/B ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS ARE BY DEFINITION NORMALIZED WHEN Legend
INTEGRATED OVER COSINE. THEREFORE THIS CODE WILL NORMALIZE EACH Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION BEFORE IT IS OUTPUT. THE OUTPUT REPORT FROM Legend
THIS CODE WILL INDICATE THE NORMALIZATION FACTOR USED. Legend
Legend
THE REASON THAT AN ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION MAY NOT BE NORMALIZED IS Legend
DUE TO THE APPROXIMATION OF CREATING LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE Legend
TABULATED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS - THE MORE ACCURATELY THIS IS Legend
DONE THE CLOSER THE NORMALIZATION FACTOR WILL BE TO UNITY. AS YOU Legend
DECREASE THE ALLOWABLE ERROR THE NORMALIZED VALUES WILL APPROACH Legend
THE CORRECT POINT VALUES CALCULATED BY THE CODE. Legend
Legend
SINCE THE DATA IS NORMALIZED PRIOR TO OUTPUT THE RESULTS IN THE Legend
ENDF/B FORMAT MAY DIFFER SLIGHTLY FROM VALUES REFERRED TO BE ERROR Legend
MESSAGES, ETC. PRINTED BY THE CODE DURING EXECUTION. IN ALL CASES Legend
THE VALUES PRINTED BY THE CODE IN ERROR MESSAGES, ETC. SHOULD BE Legend
CONSIDERED TO BE THE CORRECT VALUES AND THE OUTPUT TABULATED Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS APPROXIMATE DUE TO THE RE-NORMALIZATION - Legend
TO RE-ITERATE, THE OUTPUT TABULATED VALUES ARE APPROXIMATE DUE Legend
TO THE APPROXIMATIONS USED IN CONSTRUCTING LINEAR INTERPOLABLE Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS TO WITHIN SOME ALLOWABLE TOLERANCE. Legend
Legend
ELIMINATION OF NEGATIVE VALUES Legend
------------------------------ Legend
THE RECONSTRUCTED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION WILL BE TESTED AND IF IT Legend
IS NEGATIVE AT ONE OR MORE COSINES AN ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE OUTPUT Legend
AND BASED ON THE INPUT OPTION SELECTED ONE OF THE FOLLOWING Legend
CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WILL BE TAKEN (SEE, INPUT OPTIONS), Legend
(1) NO CORRECTION Legend
(2) CHANGE INDIVIDUAL LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS (EACH BY LESS THAN Legend
1.0 PER-CENT) UNTIL THE RECONSTRUCTED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION Legend
IS POSITIVE (MINIMUM MORE THAN 1 MILLI-BARN). THE ALLOWABLE Legend
PER-CENT CHANGE IN COEFFICIENTS AND MINIMUM CROSS SECTION CAN Legend
BE CHANGED BY INPUT. Legend
(3) CHANGE ALL LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS TO FORCE DISTRIBUTION TO BE Legend
POSITIVE (MINIMUM MORE THAN 1 MILLI-BARN). WITH THIS OPTION Legend
THERE IS NO RESTRICTION ON THE AMOUNT THAT EACH COEFFICIENT Legend
IS CHANGED AND AS SUCH THIS OPTION SHOULD BE USED WITH Legend
CAUTION AND ONLY AS A LAST RESORT IF NO OTHER APPROACH CAN Legend
BE USED TO MAKE THE DISTRIBUTION POSITIVE. Legend
Legend
OUTPUT Legend
------ Legend
THE USER MAY REQUEST OUTPUT OF EITHER, Legend
(1) TABULATED VALUES - POSSIBLY CORRECTED TO ELIMINATE NEGATIVE Legend
VALUES. THE TABULATED DISTRIBUTION WILL BE NORMALIZED BEFORE Legend
OUTPUT. Legend
(2) LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS - POSSIBLY CORRECTED TO ELIMINATE Legend
NEGATIVE VALUES AND WITHOUT HIGHER ORDER ZERO COEFFICIENTS. Legend
BY DEFINITION DISTRIBUTIONS DEFINED BY LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS Legend
ARE NORMALIZED TO UNITY. Legend
Legend
(3) ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS GIVEN BY A TABULATION (LTT=2) Legend
------------------------------------------------------- Legend
TABULATED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS ARE GIVEN AT A SERIES OF ENERGIES. Legend
AN INTERPOLATION LAW IS GIVEN BETWEEN ENERGIES. THE INTERPOLATION Legend
LAW BETWEEN ENERGIES IS COPIED AS INPUT (I.E., NO ATTEMPT IS Legend
MADE TO LINEARIZE THE VARIATION WITH ENERGY). FOR EACH ENERGY AT Legend
AT WHICH TABULATED DATA ARE GIVEN A LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE ANGULAR Legend
DISTRIBUTION IS CONSTRUCTED IN THE SYSTEM IN WHICH THE TABULATED Legend
DATA ARE GIVEN (I.E., CM OR LAB - NO ATTEMPT IS MADE TO CONVERT Legend
FROM ONE SYSTEM TO THE OTHER). A MAXIMUM OF 60000 POINTS IS ALLOWE Legend
TO REPRESENT THE ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION AT EACH ENERGY. Legend
Legend
ELIMINATION OF NEGATIVE VALUES Legend
------------------------------ Legend
THE RECONSTRUCTED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION WILL BE TESTED AND IF IT Legend
IS NEGATIVE AT ONE OR MORE COSINES AN ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE OUTPUT Legend
AND BASED ON THE INPUT OPTION SELECTED ONE OF THE FOLLOWING Legend
CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WILL BE TAKEN (SEE, INPUT OPTIONS), Legend
(1) NO CORRECTION Legend
(2) CHANGE ALL TABULATED VALUES TO FORCE DISTRIBUTION TO BE Legend
POSITIVE (MINIMUM MORE THAN 1 MILLI-BARN). THE MINIMUM VALUE Legend
MAY BE CHANGED BY INPUT. WITH THIS OPTION THERE IS NO Legend
RESTRICTION ON THE AMOUNT THAT EACH VALUE IS CHANGED AND AS Legend
SUCH THIS OPTION SHOULD BE USED WITH CAUTION AND ONLY AS A Legend
LAST RESORT IF NO OTHER APPROACH CAN BE USED TO MAKE THE Legend
DISTRIBUTION POSITIVE. Legend
Legend
OUTPUT Legend
------ Legend
THE OUTPUT WILL BE THE LINEARIZED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION. THE Legend
TABULATED DISTRIBUTION WILL BE NORMALIZED TO UNITY BEFORE OUTPUT. Legend
Legend
CORRECTING NEGATIVE ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION Legend
---------------------------------------- Legend
IF AN ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION IS NEGATIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE Legend
PRINTED AND THE USER MAY DECIDE (BASED ON INPUT OPTION) TO, Legend
(1) NOT PERFORM ANY CORRECTIVE ACTION. Legend
(2) FOR TABULATED DISTRIBUTIONS - ADD THE SAME VALUE TO EACH POINT Legend
VALUE SUCH THAT WHEN THE DISTRIBUTION IS RE-NORMALIZED THE Legend
MINIMUM VALUE IS 0.001 (1 MILLI-BARN). THE MINIMUM VALUE CAN Legend
BE CHANGED BY INPUT. WARNING...EXCEPT FOR SELECTION OF THE Legend
MINIMUM VALUE (BY INPUT) THE USER HAS NO CONTROL OVER HOW Legend
MUCH THE DISTRIBUTION IS CHANGED. THEREFORE THIS OPTION SHOULD Legend
BE USED WITH CAUTION. Legend
(3) FOR LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS ONE OF TWO OPTIONS MAY BE SELECTED, Legend
(A) CHANGE INDIVIDUAL COEFFICIENTS (NO ONE COEFFICIENT BY MORE Legend
THAN 1 PER-CENT) TO MAKE THE DISTRIBUTION POSITIVE WITH A Legend
MINIMUM VALUE OF 0.001 (1 MILLI-BARN). THE MAXIMUM PER-CENT Legend
CHANGE IN EACH COEFFICIENT AND MINIMUM VALUE MAY BE CHANGED Legend
BY INPUT. INPUT THE PROGRAM CANNOT MAKE THE DISTRIBUTION Legend
POSITIVE BY CHANGING EACH COEFFICIENT BY UP TO THE MAXIMUM Legend
ALLOWABLE AMOUNT, THE ORIGINAL ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION OR Legend
COEFFICIENTS WILL BE OUTPUT. ONLY IN THE LATTER CASE SHOULD Legend
ONE CONSIDER USING OPTION (B) DESCRIBED BELOW. Legend
(B) LOGICALLY ADD THE SAME VALUE TO EACH POINT VALUE SUCH THAT Legend
WHEN THE DISTRIBUTION IS RE-NORMALIZED THE MINIMUM VALUE IS Legend
0.001 (1 MILLI-BARN). THIS IS EQUIVALENT AT INCREASING P0 Legend
BY A CERTAIN AMOUNT AND RE-NORMALIZATION IS EQUIVALENT TO THEN Legend
DIVIDING EACH COEFFICIENT BY A CERTAIN AMOUNT. THEREFORE, Legend
WHAT IS PHYSICALLY DONE BY THE PROGRAM IS TO DIVIDE EACH Legend
COEFFICIENT BY THE SAME AMOUNT. WARNING..EXCEPT FOR SELECTION Legend
OF THE MINIMUM VALUE (BY INPUT) THE USER HAS NO CONTROL OVER Legend
HOW MUCH THE DISTRIBUTION IS CHANGED. THEREFORE THIS OPTION Legend
SHOULD BE USED WITH CAUTION. Legend
Legend
WARNING MESSAGES FROM PROGRAM Legend
----------------------------- Legend
THE WARNING MESSAGES PRINTED BY THIS PROGRAM SHOULD ONLY BE Legend
CONSIDERED TO BE EXACTLY THAT..WARNINGS..NOT AN ABSOLUTE JUDGEMENT Legend
BY THIS PROGRAM THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE DATA. WHEN Legend
WARNING MESSAGES ARE PRINTED EXAMINE THE DATA AND EITHER TAKE NO Legend
ACTION (IF YOU FEEL THAT THE DATA IS O.K.) OR CORRECT THE DATA Legend
(IF YOU FEEL THAT THE DATA IS INCORRECT AND YOU CAN CORRECT IT). Legend
Legend
VALIDITY OF MODIFIED DATA Legend
------------------------- Legend
BEFORE BELIEVING AND USING DATA WHICH HAS BEEN MODIFIED (EITHER Legend
TABULATED ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OR LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS) THE USER Legend
SHOULD INSURE THAT THE MODIFIED DATA IS PHYSICALLY MORE ACCEPTABLE Legend
THAN THE ORIGINAL DATA. IN ORDER TO DO THIS ONE OR MORE OF THE Legend
FOLLOWING METHODS SHOULD BE USED, Legend
Legend
(1) USE THE ENERGY VARIATION TESTS BUILT-IN TO THIS PROGRAM AND Legend
EVALPLOT TO PLOT THE ENERGY DEPENDENCE OF THE LEGENDRE Legend
COEFFICIENTS IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY AND CORRECT (BY HAND...NOT Legend
BY THIS PROGRAM) ANY COEFFICIENTS WHICH HAVE UNREALISTIC Legend
ENERGY AND L ORDER VARIATIONS. THIS SHOULD ALWAYS BE DONE Legend
FIRST TO ELIMINATE MAJOR PROBLEMS BEFORE USING THIS PROGRAM Legend
TO AUTOMATICALLY MAKE MINOR CORRECTIONS. Legend
(1) OUTPUT AND PLOT THE UNCORRECTED AND CORRECTED ANGULAR Legend
DISTRIBUTIONS. COMPARE THE PLOTS TO INSURE THAT THE CORRECTED Legend
DATA DOES NOT SERIOUSLY CHANGE THE ENERGY DEPENDENCE OF THE Legend
ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION. Legend
(2) IF PLOTTING CAPABILITY IS NOT AVAIALABLE, USE THE PRINTED OUT Legend
OF THIS PROGRAM TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH THE TABULATED ANGULAR Legend
DISTRIBUTION OR LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS HAVE BEEN MODIFIED. Legend
GENERALLY IF ONE COEFFICIENT HAS BEEN ONLY SLIGHTLY MODIFIED Legend
THE DISTRIBUTION WILL BE ACCEPTABLE. HOWEVER IF MANY Legend
COEFFICIENTS HAVE BEEN MODIFIED THE RESULT WILL NOT BE Legend
RELIABLE. Legend
Legend
SEEING ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS AND LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS Legend
------------------------------------------------------ Legend
PROGRAM EVALPLOT CAN BE USED TO PLOT ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION AND Legend
LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS - WHEN IT COMES TO CHECKING THIS TYPE OF Legend
DATA THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR PLOTS OF THE DATA TO MAKE THE Legend
JOB EASY AND STRAIGHTFORWARD. Legend
Legend
FOR LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS EVALPLOT CAN BE USED TO SEE THE ENERGY Legend
DEPENDENCE OF EACH COEFFICIENT - THIS IS AN EXTREMELY EASY AND Legend
USEFUL WAY TO CHECK FOR ERRORS IN THE BASIC DATA. Legend
Legend
FOR ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION EVALPLOT CAN BE USED TO PLOT THEM AT Legend
EACH ENERGY THAT THEY ARE TABULATED - THIS IS ALSO AN EASY AND Legend
USEFUL WAY TO CHECK FOR ERRORS. Legend
