Partial level densities for nuclear data calculations

Abstract

The main formalisms of partial level densities (PLD) used in preequilibrium nuclear reaction models, based on the equidistant spacing model (ESM), are considered. A collection of FORTRAN77 functions for PLD calculation by using 14 formalisms for the related partial-state densities is provided and 28 sample cases (73 versions) are described. The results are given in graphic form too. Composite (recommended) formulas, which include the optional use of various corrections, i.e. the advanced pairing and shell correction in addition to the Pauli effect, and average energy-dependent single-particle level densities for the excited particles and holes, are also given. The formalism comprises the density of particle-hole bound states, and the effects of an exact correction for the Pauli-exclusion principle are considered.
