Generation of handbook of multi-group cross sections of WIMS-D libraries by using the XnWlup2.0 software

Abstract A project to prepare an exhaustive handbook of WIMS-D cross section libraries for thermal reactor applications comparing different WIMS-D compatible nuclear data libraries originating from various countries has been successfully designed. To meet the objectives of this project, a computer software package with graphical user interface for MS Windows has been developed at BARC, India. This article summarizes the salient features of this new software and presents significant improvements and extensions in relation to its first version [Ann Nucl Energ 29 (2002) 1735].
