Proceedings of the Workshop for Applied Nuclear Data Activities WANDA 2022
On February 28 – March 4, 2022, the Nuclear Data Interagency Working Group (NDIAWG) hosted the 5-day virtual Workshop for Applied Nuclear Data (WANDA2022) to facilitate interagency collaboration on nuclear data for applications. This year’s focus was nuclear data for space applications, but also included photon reactions and transport, reactions on unstable nuclei, and data adjustment topics. The annual WANDA workshops are planned by the Nuclear Data Working Group (NDWG) with the goal of assembling users and producers of nuclear data to provide input to identify and prioritize nuclear data needs and to suggest solutions to address those needs. The workshop consisted of talks by agency program managers, six topic focused road mapping sessions and a review of NDIAWG-funded projects. More than 350 attendees represented national laboratories, universities, and federal agencies, as well as international organizations and industry. The proceedings presented herein summarize the workshop’s content, highlight important outcomes, and document attendees’ recommendations.
