Christmas Night
Twas the night before Christmas when all through the houseNo electrons were flowing through even my mouse.
All devices were plugged in by the chimney with careWith the hope that St. Nikola Tesla would share.

A library of cross-sections BISERM has been developed for the analysis of radiation damage sensitivity of nuclear power plant structural materials irradiated by nucleons of energies up to 800 MeV. The library contains information on neutron and proton displacement cross-sections, helium and hydrogen production cross-sections for 190 isotopes. The evaluation of the given cross-sections has been performed with a set of DIDACS/90 codes developed by the authors.
