Analyzing the neutron scattering angular distribution in a ACE-formatted multigroup cross section library using the maximum entropy method

To describe the angular distribution for a group-to-group neutron scattering event, the coefficients of a truncated Legendre polynomial are usually used in the multigroup cross section. However, the truncated expansion can caused negative values of a probability density function (PDF) in some scatte...
