Abstract

The simulation of the de-excitation of nuclei requires some models and data in order to construct the nuclear level scheme and the associated transition intensities. The aim of this work is to focus on nuclear structure data used at low energy where electromagnetic transitions can be measured. The RIPL3 database linked to the FIFRELIN Monte Carlo code contains such data and their influence on fission observables is reviewed.
