Abstract
In order to validate the detailed sensitivity of each minor actinide datum in ENDF/B-VI Release 6, JEF-2.2 and JENDL-3.2 on an accelerator-driven minor actinide burner benchmark system, a lead-bismuth cooled sub-critical system was analyzed. The impacts on the system by the ten minor actinides were compared. The keff values and reaction rates were calculated by exchanging the data sets of each minor actinide from ENDF/B-VI.6 to JEF-2.2 or JENDL-3.2. At the equilibrium core, the keffdifferences from ENDF/B-VI.6 by the ten minor actinides can cause more than 5, 500 pcm for JEF-2.2 and 3, 500 pcm for JENDL-3.2. The fission reaction rates of 242mAm and 243Cm with ENDF/B-VI.6 show differences of more than 15% from those with JEF-2.2 and JENDL-3.2. 241Am, 243Am and 245Cm in JEF-2.2 and americium isotope data and 245Cm in JENDL-3.2 are sensitive to the fission spectrum.
