Use of integral data assimilation and differential measurements as a contribution to improve 235U and 238U cross sections evaluations in the fast and epithermal energy range

Critical mass calculations of various HEU-fueled fast reactors result in large discrepancies in C/E values, depending on the nuclear data library used and the configuration modeled. Thus, it seems relevant to use integral experiments to try to reassess cross sections that might be responsible for su...
