This presentation discusses the nuclear data measurements and evaluation work for NCSP, including its objective which is to provide measured and evaluated thermal, resonance, unresolved resonance, and fast region cross-section data to address the priority NCSP nuclear data needs. It also discusses its vision which addresses multiple Nuclear Data 5- and 10-year goals and attributes identified in the NCSP Vision. The intended final product is that rigorous ENDF/B evaluations will be produced from cross section measurements and analyses. Measurement work effort focused on NCSP priorities by NCSP Nuclear Data Advisory Group (NDAG) can be found in Appendix B of the 5-year plan. NCSP measurements program at JRC is now part of the DOE/Euratom agreement, Action Sheet 66.
The mission of the DOE/NNSA Nuclear Criticality Safety Program is to provide sustainable expert leadership, direction and the technical infrastructure necessary to develop, maintain, and disseminate the essential technical tools, training, and data required to support safe, efficient fissionable material operations within DOE. The vision of the program is to create a continually improving, adaptable, and transparent program that communicates and collaborates globally to incorporate technology, practices, and programs to be responsive to the essential technical needs of those responsible for developing, implementing, and maintaining nuclear criticality safety.
