Fission Evaluation Tools and Analytics (FETA)
Abstract
We present a new Python package called FETA to compute fission observables. In comparison to existing fission event modeling codes on the market, FETA is a modular, flexible, and code-agnostic wrapper around a statistical reaction theory program. In this paper, we report on version 2.0 of FETA, which simulates the prompt decay of the fragments with the LLNL-developed Hauser-Feshbach code YAHFC. We discuss the design philosophy of FETA, present some validation results for the neutron-induced fission of 239Pu, and briefly outline the structure of the package.
