Accurate nuclear data are of fundamental importance in a number of different nuclear and non-nuclear fields. The EU-funded SANDA project aims to produce a data library containing high-quality nuclear measurements on key isotopes and reactions. The project puts special focus on how data are measured, evaluated and validated. This high-accuracy nuclear data can be exploited by safety authorities, research institutions, the nuclear industry and health organisations.
The consortium includes 35 partners and is lead by CIEMAT, Spain.
ATOMKI as a member of the International Network of Nuclear Structure and Decay Data (NSDD) contributes with ENSDF evaluation of nuclear structure and decay data for the isotopes belonging to the A=101 and A=103 nuclear mass chains, and for four other isotopes that are important for medical purposes.
The project is financed with 3.5 MEUR, from which ATOMKI received 20.0 kEUR.
