[fluka-discuss]: neutron cross sections version (ENDF/B-VI?)

Dear FLUKA experts,

Are the FLUKA neutron cross sections (I'm specifically interested in the ones on xenon-136) still based on ENDF/B-VI? This uses a highly simplified version of the (n,gamma) cross section for 136Xe, and treats the entire resonance set as an averaged out increase. The cross sections in ENDF/B-VII.1, for example, treat this much more nicely.

It may not be necessary to specifically ask for the cross-sections to be updated, but I'd like to know what version is being used.

Thank you,

Josh
