where i,a,g and i,p are absorption and potential cross sections for nuclide i, respectively, i,g denotes intermediate resonance (IR) parameter, and i,b,g is a background cross section. Equivalence theory enforces that the self-shielded scalar flux is expressed with the absorption (an) and the background cross sections (bn): Notice: This manuscript has been authored by UT-Battelle, LLC, under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725 with the US Department of Energy (DOE).
