...Roberto Capote; Konstantin I. Zolotarev; Vladimir G. Pronyaev; Andrej Trkov The International Reactor Dosimetry File (IRDF)-2002 released in 2004 by the IAEA (see http://www-nds.iaea.org/irdf2002/ ) contains cross-section data and corresponding uncertainties for 66 dosimetry reactions. New cross...

... appropriate to the required fast neutron ux density and neutron reaction rates have been calculated for several signi cant points within the RPV and RPV cavity of the VVER-440 reactor. Both of calculation methods are brie y described and the results are compared. KEYWORDS: reactor dosimetry, VVER-440...
