Coherent scattering is the theoretical basis of X-ray diffraction,which is widely used in the field of materials.A functional module to calculate the nondestructive testing of photon-atomic and photon-molecular coherent scattering cross sections is developed in the nuclear data processing code NECP-Atlas.The photon-atomic coherent scattering cross section is processed in NECP-Atlas with the same method as that of NJOY2016.In practice,photon interacts with materials which usually consist of numer-ous polyatomic molecules.Therefore,the photon-molecular coherent scattering cross sections should be calculated instead of photon-atomic coherent scattering cross sections to acquire more accurate simulated results.First,the independent atom model(IAM)was implemented to calculate the photon-molecular coherent scattering cross sections with the assumption that the atom was isolated.This approximation works well when the momentum transfer of incident photons is large.At small momentum transfer,the interference effects of various atoms cannot be ignored.Then,the molecular interfer-ence model was introduced to consider the influence on angular distribution of secondary photons due to the interference effects.The molecular interference functions of water and ethanol were simulated using molecular dynamics simulation,and then applied in the ACE library.The atomic form factors of the atoms in water and ethanol molecules were modified by the molecular interference function.To quantify the influence of molecular interference effects on angular distribution of secondary photons,an imaging system was simulated.Numerical results show that the molecular interference effects have a significantly influence on the angular distribution of photons at small momentum transfer,while at large momentum transfer,the molecular interference effects can be ignored.
