This is an overview of the European Activation System (EASY) as released in 2007. EASY-2007 consists of a wide range of codes, data and documentation all aimed at satisfying the objective of calculating the response of materials irradiated in a flux of neutrons or charged particles. The main difference from the previous version is that in addition to neutron-induced reactions, it is now possible to also consider deuteron- or proton-induced reactions. It is designed to investigate both fusion devices and accelerator based materials test facilities that will act as intense sources of high energy particles causing significant activation of the surrounding materials. The very general nature of the calculational method and the data libraries means that it is applicable (with some reservations) to all situations (e.g. fission, fusion reactors or particle source devices ) where materials are exposed to neutrons, deuterons or protons below 60 MeV.
EASY can be divided into two parts: firstly the data and code development tools and secondly user tools and data. The former are required to develop the latter, but users of EASY only need to be able to use the inventory code FISPACT and be aware of the contents of the EAF library (the data source).
