    Moved from here.

    Dear Prof. Meyer,
    I want to add all the photodisintegration reactions in mynet.xml for nuclides between Z=76 to Z=84. Please guide me how I can do this. Thank you.

      Thanks for your post. The codes will already have photodisintegration reactions in my_net.xml. In most cases, those rates will be computed from detailed balance from the forward (exothermic) reaction. You can check with libnucnet examples. In particular, look at the Libnucnet Examples. There are codes to compute forward and reverse rates. Also, you can check for a network calculation by computing reaction flows.

      If you want to update disintegration data, you probably want to update the forward (exothermic) data. For example, to update kr80 + gamma -> kr79 + n, you probably want to update the data for kr79 + n -> kr80 + gamma. The code will automatically update the data for the reverse reaction (kr80 + gamma -> kr79 + n) by detailed balance. I hope this helps. Best wishes.
