Atomic displacement cross sections for carbon from ENDF/B-III data

Atomic displacement cross sections have been derived from the data in materials file 1165 (Carbon-12) of the third version of the Evaluated Nuclear Data File (ENDF/B-III), Using the Lindhard theoretical treatment for the stopping cross sections of carbon ions in carbon. A comparison of the differences between previous estimates of the carbon atom displacement functions and the results of these calculations indicate that the use of the atomic displacement cross sections presented herein should improve the correlations of damage production in different irradiation facilities.
