JENDL-4.0/HE Benchmark Test with Concrete and Iron Shielding Experiments at JAEA/TIARA

As a benchmark test of JENDL-4.0/HE released in 2015, we have analyzed the concrete and iron shielding experiments with the quasi mono-energetic 40 and 65 MeV neutron sources at TIARA in JAEA by using MCNP5 and ACE files processed from JENDL-4.0/HE with NJOY2012. As a result, it was found out that t...
