%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The 70 group WIMS-BOXER structure MATXS library contains data for 80 isotopes of 40 chemical elements. Several temperatures, background cross sections and P1 scattering anisotropy are included. The data can be used by most transport and diffusion codes after preprocessing with  the MATXS interface codes TRAMIX or TRANSX-CTR.

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME:

NEA-1206/01

The library was processed on a VAX 8810 computer using the conversion program BBC (see PSR0206/02). The conversion BCD to to binary took 4 minutes 34 seconds. The conversion binary to BCD took 5 minutes 36 seconds.

8. RELATED AND AUXILIARY PROGRAMS

Program BBC converts the mode, lists or provides an index of the MATXS-file. The library interface codes TRAMIX or TRANSX-CTR read MATXS files and produce transport tables compatible with many Sn and diffusion codes.
