VERS. 2012-1 (Aug. 2012) *CHANGE COPY CRITERIA TO HANDLE NEW SIGMA1
(N,N') DATA = THRESHOLD MAY BE VERY SIGMA1
HIGH (OLD CRITERIA) BUT INCLUDES MANYSIGMA1

VERS. 2013-1 (Nov. 2013) *Added NO broadening above 10 MeV - SIGMA1
this is to handle newer evaluations SIGMA1
that extend to higher energies and SIGMA1
may do "strange" things to stop one SIGMA1
MT and then include it as part of SIGMA1
a sum at higher energies, e.g. this SIGMA1
change will copy ALL points above SIGMA1

*All floating input parameters changedSIGMA1
to character input + IN9 conversion. SIGMA1
*Added NRO = energy dependent scatter SIGMA1
radius to copying FILE2 parameters SIGMA1
to define unresolved energy range. SIGMA1
*Corrected energy dependent scatteringSIGMA1
radius for all resonance types (see, SIGMA1
the above comments). SIGMA1
VERS. 2018-1 (Nov. 2018) *Added on-line report for ALL ENDERRORSIGMA1
VERS. 2019-1 (June 2019) *Terminate if MF=3 Point Count and SIGMA1
Interpolation Law do not agree. SIGMA1
*Terminate if MF=3 Background SIGMA1
Interpolation is NOT Linear. SIGMA1
*Terminate if MF/MT=1/451 Input SIGMA1
temperature exceeds requested SIGMA1
Temperature - otherwise the output SIGMA1
by this code to MF=3 would appear SIGMA1
to be at the WRONG temperature. SIGMA1
*Additional Interpolation Law Tests SIGMA1
*Check consistency of Maximum SIGMA1
Tabulated cross sections for ALL MT SIGMA1
processed - print WQARNING if NOT SIGMA1
the same for ALL MTs. SIGMA1
VERS. 2020-1 (Dec. 2020) *Complete Re-write of convergence SIGMA1
*Replaced INCORE9 by INCORE10. SIGMA1
*Updated minimum/maximum convergence SIGMA1
procedure. SIGMA1
*Added Target Isomer State SIGMA1
*Check Atomic Weight > 0 SIGMA1

AUTHORS MESSAGE SIGMA1
--------------- SIGMA1
THE REPORT DESCRIBED ABOVE IS THE LATEST PUBLISHED DOCUMENTATION SIGMA1
FOR THIS PROGRAM. HOWEVER, THE COMMENTS BELOW SHOULD BE CONSIDEREDSIGMA1
THE LATEST DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING ALL RECENT IMPROVEMENTS. PLEASESIGMA1
READ ALL OF THESE COMMENTS BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION, PARTICULARLY SIGMA1
THE COMMENTS CONCERNING MACHINE DEPENDENT CODING. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
AT THE PRESENT TIME WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO DEVELOP A SET OF COMPUTERSIGMA1
INDEPENDENT PROGRAMS THAT CAN EASILY BE IMPLEMENTED ON ANY ONE SIGMA1
OF A WIDE VARIETY OF COMPUTERS. IN ORDER TO ASSIST IN THIS PROJECTSIGMA1
IT WOULD BE APPECIATED IF YOU WOULD NOTIFY THE AUTHOR OF ANY SIGMA1
COMPILER DIAGNOSTICS, OPERATING PROBLEMS OR SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO SIGMA1
IMPROVE THIS PROGRAM. HOPEFULLY, IN THIS WAY FUTURE VERSIONS OF SIGMA1
THIS PROGRAM WILL BE COMPLETELY COMPATIBLE FOR USE ON YOUR SIGMA1
COMPUTER. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
PURPOSE SIGMA1
------- SIGMA1
THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO DOPPLER BROADEN NEUTRON INDUCED SIGMA1
CROSS SECTIONS. EACH SECTION OF CROSS SECTIONS (FILE 3) IS READ SIGMA1
FROM THE ENDF/B FORMAT. THE DATA IS DOPPLER BROADENED, THINNED SIGMA1
AND OUTPUT IN THE ENDF/B FORMAT. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
IN THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION FOR SIMPLICITY THE ENDF/B TERMINOLOGY SIGMA1
---ENDF/B TAPE---WILL BE USED. IN FACT THE ACTUAL MEDIUM MAY BE SIGMA1
TAPE, CARDS, DISK OR ANY OTHER MEDIUM. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
ENDF/B FORMAT SIGMA1
------------- SIGMA1
THIS PROGRAM ONLY USES THE ENDF/B BCD OR CARD IMAGE FORMAT (AS SIGMA1
OPPOSED TO THE BINARY FORMAT) AND CAN HANDLE DATA IN ANY VERSION SIGMA1
OF THE ENDF/B FORMAT (I.E., ENDF/B-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 FORMAT). SIGMA1
SIGMA1
IT IS ASSUMED THAT THE DATA IS CORRECTLY CODED IN THE ENDF/B SIGMA1
FORMAT AND NO ERROR CHECKING IS PERFORMED. IN PARTICULAR IT IS SIGMA1
ASSUMED THAT THE MAT, MF AND MT ON EACH CARD IS CORRECT. SEQUENCE SIGMA1
NUMBERS (COLUMNS 76-80) ARE IGNORED ON INPUT, BUT WILL BE SIGMA1
CORRECTLY OUTPUT ON ALL CARDS. THE FORMAT OF SECTION MF=1, MT=451 SIGMA1
AND ALL SECTIONS OF MF=3 MUST BE CORRECT. THE PROGRAM COPIES ALL SIGMA1
OTHER SECTION OF DATA AS HOLLERITH AND AS SUCH IS INSENSITIVE TO SIGMA1
THE CORRECTNESS OR INCORRECTNESS OF ALL OTHER SECTIONS. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
ALL CROSS SECTIONS THAT ARE USED BY THIS PROGRAM MUST BE TABULATEDSIGMA1
AND LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE IN ENERGY AND CROSS SECTION (ENDF/B SIGMA1
INTERPOLATION LAW 2). FILE 3 CROSS SECTIONS MAY BE MADE LINEARLY SIGMA1
INTERPOLABLE BY USING PROGRAM LINEAR (UCRL-50400, VOL.17, PART A).SIGMA1
FILE 2 RESONANCE PARAMETERS MAY BE USED TO RECONSTRUCT ENERGY SIGMA1
DEPENDENT CROSS SECTIONS AND ADD IN FILE 3 BACKGROUND CROSS SIGMA1
SECTIONS TO DEFINE LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE CROSS SECTIONS BY USING SIGMA1
PROGRAM RECENT (UCRL-50400, VOL. 17, PART C). IF THIS PROGRAM SIGMA1
FINDS THAT THE FILE 3 CROSS SECTIONS ARE NOT LINEARLY INTERPOLABLESIGMA1
THIS PROGRAM WILL TERMINATE EXECUTION. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
UNRESOLVED RESONANCE REGION SIGMA1
--------------------------- SIGMA1
IN THE UNRESOLVED RESONANCE REGION IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO EXACTLY SIGMA1
DEFINE THE ENERGY DEPENDENCE OF THE CROSS SECTIONS. THE AVERAGE SIGMA1
WIDTHS AND SPACINGS GIVEN IN ENDF/B ARE ONLY ADEQUATE TO DEFINE SIGMA1
AVERAGE VALUES OF THE CROSS SECTIONS. THEREFORE ALL CROSS SECTIONSSIGMA1
IN THE ENDF/B FORMAT FOR THE UNRESOLVED REGION ARE REALLY AVERAGE SIGMA1
VALUES WHICH CANNOT BE DOPPLER BROADENED USING THE SIGMA1 METHOD SIGMA1
(WHICH REQUIRES TABULATED, LINEARLY INTERPOLABLE, ENERGY DEPENDENTSIGMA1
CROSS SECTIONS. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
THEREFORE, SIGMA1
(1) ALL TABULATED POINTS WITHIN THE UNRESOLVED RESONANCE REGION SIGMA1
WILL BE COPIED, WITHOUT MODIFICATION OR BROADENING. ADOPTION OF SIGMA1
THIS CONVENTION WILL ALLOW SUBSEQUENT PROGRAMS TO PROPERLY DEFINE SIGMA1
SELF-SHIELDED, DOPPLER BROADENED CROSS SECTIONS IN THE UNRESOLVED SIGMA1
RESONANCE REGION. SIGMA1
(2) CROSS SECTIONS WILL BE EXTENDED AS 1/V ABOVE THE UPPER ENERGY SIGMA1
LIMIT OF THE RESOLVED RESONANCE REGION AND BELOW THE LOWER ENERGY SIGMA1
LIMIT OF THE CONTINUUUM REGION (I.E. INTO THE UNRESOLVED SIGMA1
RESONANCE REGION). THIS CONVENTION WILL GUARANTEE A SMOOTH SIGMA1
BEHAVIOR CLOSE TO THE UNRESOLVED RESONANCE REGION BOUNDARIES. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
OUTPUT FORMAT SIGMA1
------------- SIGMA1
IN THIS VERSION OF SIGMA1 ALL FILE 3 ENERGIES WILL BE OUTPUT IN SIGMA1
F (INSTEAD OF E) FORMAT IN ORDER TO ALLOW ENERGIES TO BE WRITTEN SIGMA1
WITH UP TO 9 DIGITS OF ACCURACY. IN PREVIOUS VERSIONS THIS WAS AN SIGMA1
OUTPUT OPTION. HOWEVER USE OF THIS OPTION TO COMPARE THE RESULTS SIGMA1
OF ENERGIES WRITTEN IN THE NORMAL ENDF/B CONVENTION OF 6 DIGITS SIGMA1
TO THE 9 DIGIT OUTPUT FROM THIS PROGRAM DEMONSTRATED THAT FAILURE SIGMA1
TO USE THE 9 DIGIT OUTPUT CAN LEAD TO LARGE ERRORS IN THE DATA SIGMA1
JUST DUE TO TRANSLATION OF THE ENERGIES TO THE ENDF/B FORMAT. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
CONTENTS OF OUTPUT SIGMA1
------------------ SIGMA1
ENTIRE EVALUATIONS ARE OUTPUT, NOT JUST THE BROADENED FILE 3 SIGMA1
CROSS SECTIONS, E.G. ANGULAR AND ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS ARE ALSO SIGMA1
INCLUDED. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
DOCUMENTATION SIGMA1
------------- SIGMA1
THE FACT THAT THIS PROGRAM HAS OPERATED ON THE DATA IS DOCUMENTED SIGMA1
BY THE ADDITION OF THREE COMMENTS CARDS AT THE END OF EACH SIGMA1
HOLLERITH SECTION IN THE FORM SIGMA1
SIGMA1
***************** PROGRAM SIGMA1 (2021-1) *************** SIGMA1
DATA DOPPLER BROADENED TO 300.0 KELVIN AND SIGMA1
DATA THINNED TO WITHIN AN ACCURACY OF 0.1 PER-CENT SIGMA1
SIGMA1
THE ORDER OF ALL SIMILAR COMMENTS (FROM LINEAR,RECENT AND GROUPY) SIGMA1
REPRESENTS A COMPLETE HISTORY OF ALL OPERATIONS PERFORMED ON SIGMA1
THE DATA. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
THESE COMMENT CARDS ARE ONLY ADDED TO EXISTING HOLLERITH SECTIONS,SIGMA1
I.E., THIS PROGRAM WILL NOT CREATE A HOLLERITH SECTION. THE FORMATSIGMA1
OF THE HOLLERITH SECTION IN ENDF/B-5 DIFFERS FROM THE THAT OF SIGMA1
EARLIER VERSIONS OF ENDF/B. BY READING AN EXISTING MF=1, MT=451 SIGMA1
IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THIS PROGRAM TO DETERMINE WHICH VERSION OF SIGMA1
THE ENDF/B FORMAT THE DATA IS IN. WITHOUT HAVING A SECTION OF SIGMA1
MF=1, MT=451 PRESENT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THIS PROGRAM TO SIGMA1
DETERMINE WHICH VERSION OF THE ENDF/B FORMAT THE DATA IS IN, AND SIGMA1
AS SUCH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM TO DETERMINE WHAT FORMAT SIGMA1
SHOULD BE USED TO CREATE A HOLLERITH SECTION. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
REACTION INDEX SIGMA1
-------------- SIGMA1
THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT USE THE REACTION INDEX WHICH IS GIVEN IN SIGMA1
SECTION MF=1, MT=451 OF EACH EVALUATION. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT UPDATE THE REACTION INDEX IN MF=1, MT=451. SIGMA1
THIS CONVENTION HAS BEEN ADOPTED BECAUSE MOST USERS DO NOT SIGMA1
REQUIRE A CORRECT REACTION INDEX FOR THEIR APPLICATIONS AND IT WASSIGMA1
NOT CONSIDERED WORTHWHILE TO INCLUDE THE OVERHEAD OF CONSTRUCTING SIGMA1
A CORRECT REACTION INDEX IN THIS PROGRAM. HOWEVER, IF YOU REQUIRE SIGMA1
A REACTION INDEX FOR YOUR APPLICATIONS, AFTER RUNNING THIS PROGRAMSIGMA1
YOU MAY USE PROGRAM DICTIN TO CREATE A CORRECT REACTION INDEX. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
SECTION SIZE SIGMA1
------------ SIGMA1
SINCE THIS PROGRAM USES A LOGICAL PAGING SYSTEM THERE IS NO LIMIT SIGMA1
TO THE NUMBER OF POINTS IN ANY SECTION, E.G., THE TOTAL CROSS SIGMA1
SECTION MAY BE REPRESENTED BY 200,000 DATA POINTS. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
SELECTION OF DATA SIGMA1
----------------- SIGMA1
THE PROGRAM SELECTS MATERIALS TO BE BROADENED BASED EITHER ON SIGMA1
MAT (ENDF/B MAT NO.) OR ZA. THE PROGRAM ALLOWS UP TO 100 MAT OR SIGMA1
ZA RANGES TO BE SPECIFIED. THE PROGRAM WILL ASSUME THAT THE SIGMA1
ENDF/B TAPE IS IN EITHER MAT OR ZA ORDER, WHICHEVER CRITERIA IS SIGMA1
USED TO SELECT MATERIALS, AND WILL TERMINATE WHEN A MAT OR ZA SIGMA1
IS FOUND THAT IS ABOVE THE RANGE OF ALL REQUESTS. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
ENERGY GRID OF BROADENED DATA SIGMA1
----------------------------- SIGMA1
THE ENERGY GRID FOR THE DOPPLER BROADENED CROSS SECTIONS IS SIGMA1
SELECTED TO INSURE THAT THE BROADENED DATA IS LINEAR-LINEAR SIGMA1
INTERPOLABLE. AS SUCH THE ENERGY GRID FOR THE BROADENED DATA SIGMA1
MAY NOT BE THE SAME AS THE ENERGY GRID FOR THE ORIGINAL SIGMA1
UNBROADENED DATA. GENERALLY AFTER BROADENING THERE WILL BE SIGMA1
FEWER DATA POINTS IN THE RESONANCE REGION, BUT AT LOW ENERGY SIGMA1
THERE MAY BE MORE POINTS, DUE TO THE 1/V LOW ENERGY EFFECT SIGMA1
CREATED BY DOPPLER BROADENING. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
EFFECTIVE TEMERATURE INCREASE SIGMA1
----------------------------- SIGMA1
IF THE ORIGINAL DATA IS NOT AT ZERO KELVIN THE PROGRAM WILL SIGMA1
BROADEN THE DATA BY THE EFFECTIVE TEMPERATURE DIFFENCE TO THE SIGMA1
FINAL TEMPERATURE. IF THE DATA IS ALREADY AT A TEMPERATURE THAT SIGMA1
IS HIGHER THAN THE FINAL TEMPERATURE DOPPLER BROADENING IS SIGMA1
NATURALLY NOT PERFORMED AND THE TEMPERATURE IN THE SECTION IS LEFTSIGMA1
AT ITS ORIGINAL VALUE. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
MULTIPLE FINAL TEMPERATURES SIGMA1
--------------------------- SIGMA1
THE PRESENT VERSION ONLY DOPPLER BROADENS TO ONE FINAL TEMPERATURESIGMA1
(IF THERE IS SUFFICIENT INTEREST EXPRESSED BY USERS FUTURE SIGMA1
VERSION MAY BROADEN TO MULTIPLE TEMPERATURES. PLEASE SIGMA1
CONTACT THE AUTHOR IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN A MULTIPLE SIGMA1
TEMPERATURE OPTION). SIGMA1
SIGMA1
PROGRAM OPERATION SIGMA1
----------------- SIGMA1
EACH SECTION OF FILE 3 DATA IS CONSIDERED SEPERATELY. THE DATA SIGMA1
IS READ AND DOPPLER BROADENED A PAGE AT A TIME (ONE PAGE IS SIGMA1
60000 DATA POINTS). UP TO THREE PAGES OF DATA MAY BE IN THE CORE SIGMA1
AT ANY GIVEN TIME, THE PAGE BEING BROADENED, THE PAGE BELOW IT SIGMA1
IN ENERGY AND THE PAGE ABOVE IT IN ENERGY. AFTER A PAGE HAS BEEN SIGMA1
BROADENED IT IS THINNED, IF THE ENTIRE SECTION CONTAINS ONLY SIGMA1
ONE PAGE OR LESS, IT WILL STILL BE CORE RESIDENT AND WILL BE SIGMA1
WRITTEN DIRECTLY FROM CORE TO THE OUTPUT TAPE. IF THE BROADENED, SIGMA1
THINNED SECTION IS LARGER THAN A PAGE, AFTER A PAGE HAS BEEN SIGMA1
BROADENED AND THINNED IT IS WRITTEN TO A SCRATCH FILE. AFTER THE SIGMA1
ENTIRE SECTION HAS BEEN BROADENED AND THINNED THE DATA IS READ SIGMA1
FROM SCRATCH TO CORE, ONE PAGE AT A TIME, THE OUTPUT TO THE OUTPUTSIGMA1
TAPE. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
ALLOWABLE ERROR SIGMA1
--------------- SIGMA1
AFTER DOPPLER BROADENING THE CROSS SECTION IN THE RESONANCE REGIONSIGMA1
WILL GENERALLY BE MUCH SMOOTHER THAN THE UNBROADENED DATA AND CAN SIGMA1
BE REPRESENTED TO THE SAME ACCURACY BY A SMALLER NUMBER OF ENERGY SIGMA1
POINTS. THEREFORE AFTER DOPPLER BROADENING THE DATA CAN BE THINNEDSIGMA1
WITH ESSENTIALLY NO LOSE OF INFORMATION. SIGMA1
SIGMA1
THE ALLOWABLE ERROR MAY BE ENERGY INDEPENDENT (CONSTANT) OR ENERGYSIGMA1
DEPENDENT. THE ALLOWABLE ERROR IS DESCRIBED BY A TABULATED SIGMA1
FUNCTION OF UP TO 20 (ENERGY,ERROR) PAIRS AND LINEAR INTERPOLATIONSIGMA1
BETWEEN TABULATED POINTS. IF ONLY ONE TABULATED POINT IS GIVEN THESIGMA1
ERROR WILL BE CONSIDERED CONSTANT OVER THE ENTIRE ENERGY RANGE. SIGMA1
WITH THIS ENERGY DEPENDENT ERROR ONE MAY OPTIMIZE THE OUTPUT FOR SIGMA1
ANY GIVEN APPLICATION BY USING A SMALL ERROR IN THE ENERGY RANGE SIGMA1
OF INTEREST AND A LESS STRINGENT ERROR IN OTHER ENERGY RANGES. SIGMA1

ERROR LAW AND THE ERROR WILL BE TREATED AS ENERGY SIGMA1
INDEPENDENT, EQUAL TO ZERO, WHICH INDICATES THAT THE SIGMA1
BROADENED DATA SHOULD NOT BE THINNED. SIGMA1
