@ -106,6 +106,37 @@ Compton profile data using an existing data library from `Geant4
<http://geant4.cern.ch/>`_. Note that OpenMC includes this data file by default
so it should not be necessary in practice to generate it yourself.
.. _scripts_depletion_chain:
-------------------------------
``openmc-make-depletion-chain``
-------------------------------
This script generates a depletion chain file called ``chain_endfb71.xml``
using ENDF/B-VII.1 nuclear data. If the :envvar:`OPENMC_ENDF_DATA` variable
is not set, and ``"neutron"``, ``"decay"``, ``"nfy"`` directories
do not exist, then ENDF/B-VII.1 data will be downloaded.
.. _scripts_depletion_chain_casl:
------------------------------------
``openmc-make-depletion-chain-casl``
------------------------------------
This script generates a depletion chain called ``chain_casl.xml``
using ENDF/B-VII.1 nuclear data for a simplified chain.
The nuclides were chosen by CASL-ORIGEN, which can be found in
Appendix A of Kang Seog Kim, `"Specification for the VERA Depletion
Benchmark Suite" <https://doi.org/10.2172/1256820>`_,
CASL-U-2015-1014-000, Rev. 0, ORNL/TM-2016/53, 2016.
``Te129`` has been added into this chain due to its link to
``I129`` production.
If the :envvar:`OPENMC_ENDF_DATA` variable is not set,
and ``"neutron"``, ``"decay"``, ``"nfy"`` directories
to not exist, then ENDF/B-VII.1 data will be downloaded.
