An assessment of neutron resonance data for mid-mass isotopes

A survey has been conducted of the resonance data available in major evaluated libraries for a range mid-mass isotopes. Although many isotopes have derived from experimental measurements and rigorous analyses, some others, particularly that are unstable, purely theoretically generated, e.g. via use TARES code. subsequent project developed suite automated tools to rapidly inspect specified isotope. These calculate values distributions (e.g. cumulative number resonances versus neutron energy) comparison against expected theoretical Porter-Thomas distribution) suggest their physical validity or otherwise. The motivation this study, developed, results isotopes, presented paper.
