GNDS v2.0 release and future developments [Slides]

This presentation begins by discussing the major changes in v2.0 of GNDS and that the GNDS-2.0 formatted libraries are now available. It also examines how code support for GNDS is growing with processing codes, APIs and transport codes, and evaluation/testing codes. The presentation states that while migrating to GNDS can be a major effort it worthwhile, especially for anyone who is just getting started as nuclear data creator or user. Additionally, this presentation outlines the established milestones that the EG-GNDS (the group in charge of GNDS specs) has for the next GNDS release and elaborates on the first goal, which is to migrate GNDS specifications to the new JSON schema language.

TNSL support in GNDS 2.0 and beyond [Slides]

This presentation begins by discussing the TNSL format options that went through a major overhaul in GNDS-2.0 and it examines the changes in 2.0. Additionally, it discusses three issues with further changes that should be considered. The first issue is that the project needs some guidance on what to expect when evaluations are performed with coherent inelastic. The second issue is that GNDS-2.0 does not provide a way to clearly specify in the evaluation how to switch to ‘standard’ incident neutron evaluations for energies or temperatures outside the TNSL domain. The third issue is that when GNDS-2.0 was designed, it was assumed that S(α,β) would always be given on a uniform interpolation grid. The presentation concludes by discussing how New JENDL-5 TNSL evaluations have some complications.

SAMMY Modernization Efforts [Slides]

This presentation discusses SAMMY releases and states that all of its dependencies are freely available. It also discusses version control and confirms that versions will be tagged as needed. Additionally, SAMMY program flow is discussed and states that the program flow was improved to allow for easier external access to SAMMY routines. Modernization of SAMMY is continued with the Doppler and Resolution broadening modules. The presentation concludes by stating that documentation updates are in progress.

Progress Towards International GNDS Adoption [Slides]

This presentation includes a GNDS quick overview. Libraries are increasingly available in GNDS as well as ENDF-6, Multiple evaluation / processing / checking / visualization codes have begun to support GNDS. LLNL codes FUDGE and GIDIplus are open-source tools for creating, processing and using GNDS.
