Description 
The purpose of the workshop is to provide training and information exchange for nuclear physicists, nuclear engineers, and other users of Nuclear Data for advanced technological applications. Starting from the facilities and techniques used for the experimental determination of basic Nuclear Data quantities, through the evaluation procedures and creation of reliable nuclear reaction data libraries, lectures will focus on providing the most recent developments and results in the field.


Main Topics

•	facilities and instrumentation for nuclear reaction data measurements
•	experimental techniques for measurements of nuclear reaction data
•	modern theoretical nuclear structure and reaction models
•	evaluation of nuclear data and creation of evaluated nuclear reaction data libraries
•	simulation tools for design studies of advanced nuclear systems
•	overview of strategies for advanced nuclear technologies
