Description

Nuclear Data Week at BNL traditionally consists of the CSWEG, USNDP and NDAG meetings. The 2014 CSEWG meeting will focus on the CIELO project and its five materials (16-O, 56-Fe, 235,238-U, and 239-Pu). The USNDP meeting will include discussion of the recommendations resulting from the DOE-SC mandated review of the US Nuclear Data Program in July 2014. The NDAG meeting will be the first one chaired by a newly elected Chairman.
Please also note that the meeting of WPEC Subgroup 38  will be held at BNL Bldg. 817 from October 29-31, 2014, the week prior to the official Nuclear Data Week. This Subgroup was formed to develop a modernized nuclear data format structure.
