Covariance Analyses of Self-Shielding Factor and Its Temperature Gradient for Uranium-238 Neutron Capture Reaction

Covariances of the self-shielding factor and its temperature gradient for the uranium-238 neutron capture reaction have been evaluated from the resonance parameter covariance matrix and the sensitivity of the self-shielding factor and its temperature gradient to the resonance parameters. The resonance parameters and their covariance matrix for uranium-238 were taken from JENDL-3.3, while the sensitivity coefficients were calculated by varying resonance parameters and temperature. A set of computer code modules has been developed for the calculation of the sensitivity coefficients at numerous resonance levels. The present result shows that the correlation among resonance parameters yields a substantial contribution to the standard deviations of the self-shielding factor and its temperature gradient. In addition to the standard deviations of these quantities, their correlation matrices in the JFS-3 70 group structure are also obtained.
