The aim of this paper is to present the activities carried out by NEA Data Bank on checking processing and verification of JEFF-3.3T4 covariances. A picture of the completeness and status of the JEFF- 3.3T4 covariances is addressed. The verification of JEFF-3.3T4 covariances is performed with nuclear data sensitivity tool providing the keff uncertainty as a function of the contributing nuclide-reaction pairings including cross-reaction covariances. A total number of 4501 ICSBEP benchmarks is used in this analysis. This exercise is also extended to covariance libraries such as JENDL-4.0 updated files ENDF B-VII.1 SCALE-6.2rev8 and ENDF B-VIII.0b5 allowing comparison of these results with both the experimental criticality benchmark and different methodologies of evaluation. 1 Introduction covariances MF31 MF32 MF33 MF34 and MF35 are processed using the code NJOY2012.99 10 formatting JEFF-3.3T4 1 is a fully consistent and complete nuclear and processing issues will be discussed in the paper. data library with all data needed and associated covariance The performance of JEFF-3.3T4 covariance library in information full covariance information for the main criticality and safety analysis is outlined in Section 5. actinides which can be reliably used for a large spectrum Nuclear data sensitivity tool NDaST 11 is able to of applications and which has shown a better performance propagate the covariance of nuclear data in 4501 ICSBEP than JEFF-3.2 library 2 .
