The purpose of the workshop is to provide training and information exchange for nuclear physicists, nuclear engineers, and other users of nuclear data for nuclear applications. The Workshop will revolve around TALYS, an open source code for the simulation of nuclear reactions.

TALYS is a nuclear reaction program for the complete and accurate simulation of nuclear reactions up to energies of 200 MeV, through an optimal combination of reliable nuclear models, flexibility and user-friendliness. TALYS can be used for the analysis of basic nuclear reaction experiments or to generate nuclear data for applications. Currently, there are more than 6000 publications in which TALYS is used, for applications such as astrophysics, medical isotope production, fission and fusion energy applications, and many others. The success of TALYS to simulate cross section and other observables depends on a solid implementation of nuclear reaction and structure models, including the optical model, discrete levels, level densities, fission, photon strength functions.
