An interactive graphic technique has been developed to analyze and interpret integral measurements. The method has been employed to carry out sensitivity studies and interactive data adjustments to the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute flux measurements in an assembly of uranium depleted in 235U isotope. Adjustments (relative to ENDF/B-IV) in the total inelastic cross section and the secondary distribution are reported.
