| Description | 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 $k_{eff}$ 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 $k_{eff}$differences 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$ ^{242m}$Am and$ ^{243}$Cm with ENDF/B-VI.6 show differences of more than 15% from those with JEF-2.2 and JENDL-3.2.$ ^{241}$Am,$ ^{243}$Am and$ ^{245}$Cm in JEF-2.2 and americium isotope data and$ ^{245}$Cm in JENDL-3.2 are sensitive to the fission spectrum. |
