Description

Fusion energy serves as an alternative to fossil fuels, providing zero-carbon operation and virtually inexhaustible fuel supplies. CENDL has not yet established a special evaluated data library for fusion, while already includes some nuclei required by the fusion equipment. The talk includes the brief explanation of research work related to the CENDL project, Chinese nuclear reaction data platform, the theoretical nuclear reaction models, covariance evaluations and the latest AI and nuclear data evaluation techniques are introduced. The Chinese nuclear data improvement covers from neutron-proton scattering to fission in the coming CENDL. Neutron data of deutron, Carbon-13, isotopes of Cr, Fe, U et al.related to fusion have been updated and presented in the presentation. Beyond the stable elements, some unstable isotopes of S and Cl et al. are also new evaluated in the CEDNL. At the same time, the covariance of nuclear reactions about more than one hundred nuclei will be provided via the deterministic least square approach and the Unified Monte-Carlo approach.
This work was jointly performed by the staff of China Nuclear Data Center. We would like to thank the contributions from China Nuclear Data Collaboration Network. Meanwhile, gratitude is also extended to A.Koning, R.Capote, P.Dimitriou, N.Otsuka and G.Schnabel et al. from the Nuclear Data Section of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
