Operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC for NNSA U N C L A S S I F I E D LA-UR-10-draft Observations With ENDF/B-VII.0 Cross Sections Fast Critical Assembly calculated eigenvalues are accurate. Intermediate and Thermal Spectrum calculated eigenvalues for solution assemblies exhibit a decreasing trend with increasing average fission energy. 233 UO 2 / 232 ThO 2 fuelled lattice assembly calculated eigenvalues are accurate, but are consistent with the solution assembly trend line. 233 U(n,f) reaction rate ratios are calculated accurately. 232 Th(n,2n), (n,f) and (n,g) reaction rate ratios are not calculated accurately.
