Nuclear Data Working Group - Facilitating Collaboration and Prioritization
Goal of the Nuclear Data Working Group (NDWG) is to facilitate communication, collaboration, coordination, and prioritization of nuclear data efforts across various institutions. The group releases a nuclear data FOA annually and organizes events to address the needs and capabilities for nuclear data applications. Through plenary talks and roadmapping sessions, they aim to identify current data state, uncertainty requirements, and proposed solutions.

There is a need to be able to model systems from first principals where reality is not known. Nuclear Data Pipeline Talk: Teresa Bailey, NDREW, 2018 There is a need to be able to model systems from first principals where reality is not known. In many cases, nuclear data drive the uncertainties in those models In many cases, nuclear data drive the uncertainties in those models
MISSION STATEMENT The goal of the Nuclear Data Working Group (NDWG) is to facilitate communication, collaboration, coordination, and prioritization of nuclear data efforts across multiple program offices, the national laboratories, universities, and industry. Established 2015 NDWG website: NDWG website: https://www.nndc.bnl.gov/ndwg https://www.nndc.bnl.gov/ndwg/

Format Plenary talks of mission priorities by federal agencies Five topical roadmapping sessions Presentations of nuclear data needs Identify the state of current data and uncertainty requirements Identify capabilities and proposed solutions Describe complete solution to provide data to end users Identify cross-cutting nuclear data needs Focus on mission priorities Gain community consensus on a path forward Technical review of current funded projects Summary of roadmapping session outcomes
WANDA Report The WANDA report provides a set of recommended tasks to resolve nuclear data uncertainties This report is used by federal agencies to direct nuclear data funding Funding is coordinated through the NDIAWG, not all funding is through the NDIAWG FOA Future engagement Integrate with the NDIAWG Request special sessions at future WANDA meetings Topical workshop Continued collaborations with National Laboratories Funded Nuclear data typically takes 3-5 years to be integrated into the databases
The WANDA Workshops Facilitate Communications Across Communities and Programs The WANDA Workshops Facilitate Communications Across Communities and Programs Many nuclear data users do not realize the uncertainties can be quite large. Many nuclear data needs documents are written, but programs often do not know where to begin to meet those needs. USERS USERS Needs and Impact Needs and Impact EVALUATORS/ PROCESSORS EVALUATORS/ PROCESSORS Nuclear data producers can benefit in understanding user needs. EXPERIMENTALISTS EXPERIMENTALISTS Evaluation Code Capabilities/Needs Evaluation Code Capabilities/Needs Experimental Capabilities/Needs Experimental Capabilities/Needs PROGRAM MANAGERS PROGRAM MANAGERS The scope of nuclear data is large and collaboration is critical.
