The state of the JEF-2 evaluation of 238 U + n cross sections in the region of unresolved resonances (∼10 to 300 keV) is reported with special emphasis on recent progress in theory (rigorous expressions for resonance-averaged cross sections with arbitrary level overlap), which permits reliable model-aided evaluation and parameterization by simultaneous fits to total, capture, and inelastic scattering cross-section data. Formalized inclusion of information from resolved resonances via Bayes' theorem has helped to remove discrepancies between resolved and unresolved parameters and has improved resonance statistics. Comparison with the latest ENDF/B-VI (pointwise) evaluations of the capture and the total cross sections shows agreement within 1 to 3%.
