2 Introduction JENDL-4.0 was released in 2010 with improving fissionproduct, minor-actinide, and covariance. Present status: Special Purpose File Recently released: JENDL/PD-2016: new photonuclear reaction data file JENDL/AD-2017: activation c.s. file for decomissioning General Purpose File JENDL-5: developing next version of JENDL-4.0 2

3 JENDL Photonuclear Data File 2016 JENDL/PD-2016 Released in Dec H-2 (Z=1) to Lr-266 (Z=103): Cross section: photo-absorption, photo-fission, particle-production, residual-nuclide production Light particle emission spectrum (DDX) Incident energy: 1 MeV to 140 MeV. Standard version: 181 nuclides along the betastability line (based on experimental data) Expanded version: 2681 nuclides covering a wide range of unstable ones (mainly model calculations) 3
