The goal of the Reactor Antineutrino Source Term session is to focus nuclear data needs for nuclear reactor modeling & simulation, operation, and applications that directly impact the simulated reactor antineutrino source term. The session covers nuclear data uncertainties through the fission process and other in-reactor nuclear reactions. Additionally, the impact of uncertainties in reactor operations will be addressed. Examples of topics to be covered include: fission yields, non-fuel effects, advanced reactors and spent fuel storage. Nuclear data needs will be identified along with proposed solutions and recommended improvements in modeling & simulation capabilities to support reactor antineutrino measurements.
