INTRODUCTION

The present meeting was a successor to the IAEA Consultants' Meetingon Charged Particle and Photonuclear Reaction Data held in Vienna
24 - 26 April 1974 [l]- This earlier meeting, considering the needs forcharged particle and photonuclear reaction data documented in ref. [2],concluded:"that the very valuable services provided "by the existing centres
and groups could be usefully enhanced by establishing a coherent
international cooperation in the compilation, evaluation and disseminationof these data. This cooperation would require a free international
exchange of experimental as well as evaluated data between the centres
and groups concerned."

The International Nuclear Data Committee considered the topic at its
seventh meeting in October 1974 and concluded [ref. 3» recommendation 2.43:"The Committee values the activity of the existing "non-neutron" nuclear
data centres and groups and judges it important to continue this work,in most cases with increased support.

It asks IAEA and its member

states to support the above activity, especially the international
coordination of this work and the exchange of appropriate"non-neutron"
nuclear data and references, by continuing to convene meetings of"non—neutron" nuclear data centres and groups."

Since then, some essential steps towards an international cooperationin charged-particle nuclear data compilation have been made:The charged-particle nuclear data group at Karlsruhe had preparedsample entries of charged-particle reaction data compiled in a format close
to Exfor,a system which had been developed by the four neutron data

centres for the exchange of neutron nuclear data [4]«The modified EXFOR

system as proposed by Karlsruhe had meanwhile been reviewed by the four
neutron data centres at their March 1975 meeting [5]«Also the Nuclear

Data Centre at the Moscow Kurchatov Institute submitted sample entries in
the format of the Karlsruhe Exfor system. Furthermore,a study groupin Japan has recently developed the prototype of a Nuclear Data File.
In the USA, the National Neutron Cross-Section Center has assumed responsibility
for coordinating the US activities on charged-particle nuclear data withsimilar activities abroad.

On the "basis of the conclusions of the 1974 Meeting and of the development
which took place since then, the present meeting was the first to discuss technical details on an international cooperation and exchange of charged-particle
nuclear data.

Brief review of current and planned CPITO compilation activities
1.

Mr. MUnzel reports on the CPND group at Karlsruhe.
See Annex 1. In summary, the activities of the Karlsruhe
GPWD group are:— compilation of "integral CPND" (that i s excitation functions
and thick-target yields as defined on page 23),
— estimation of excitation functions of nuclei for which
no experimental data exist,— publication of handbooks for integral CPND.

Ho bibliography is compiled; the services of the Oak Ridge NDP
and of INIS through ZAED are used.
Data are now compiled in a modified Exfor format. See Annexes 8
to 10. The master library, for which input from other centres i swelcome, will be made available to other centres for servicing
users' requests for data r e t r i e v a l s .
Por "integral CPND" a large user community is known in various
fields of application such as isotope production, surface i n vestigations, life sciences e t c .
2.

In the following discussion i t i s estimated that the"integral CPND" include only about jfo of all CPND, andthat the workload of compiling "integral CP1TD" seems
therefore to be manageable. At least yöfo of all CPND
i s differential data, for which a relatively small user
community exists, mainly in the field, of "basic research.

3.

Mr. Sokolovski.j reports on the activities of GAJaD. See
Annex 2, In summary, the a c t i v i t i e s of CAJaD are:— bibliographic compilation in a format close to "RecentReferences". See the document IAS-2403 covering r e ferences on theoretical work which i s not included in"Recent References".
— compilation of CPND, in a modified Exfor format.

Mr. Dunford

reports on the CPND activities in the USA:"The US activity in the CPND field remained unchanged since thelast Consultants' Meeting in April 1974, (see INDC(NDS)-6l). The
reader is referred to that document for more detail.
The Charged-Particle Cross Section Data Center is located at the
Oak Ridge National Laboratory and is now part of the Nuclear Data
Project. The center continues to operate at a 0.5 man level.
The major activity is the compilation of a CPND bibliography.
This bibliography is kept in a computerized file available toother CPND compilation centers. A Reaction List is publishedannually giving all new references since th'/ last publication.
A file of experimental CPND is kept by'>the 'Center but is no longer
actively maintained. No new data has been added in more than five
years. Sol Pearlstein has prepared an evaluated library of CPND
in ENDP format based on data systematics developed by Mr. MUnzel.
This library is available on request.
At the present time a complete review of the United States
activities in the non-neutron nuclear data area is being
carried out by the Brookhaven National Laboratory's National
Neutron Cross Section Center (NNCSü) for the US Energy
Research and. Development Administration. The deliberationsof this meeting will be of considerable importance in helping
us determine the future role of the US in C-^ND.
NNCSC was selected to undertake this study because of its past
success in organizing cooperative efforts such as the US neutron
data evaluation and for its international contacts. As a partof this survey a questionnaire was sent to over 400 scientists
in both the research and the applications community in orderto determine their requirements. Over 100 responses were received in July and August primarily from the physics researchcommunity. A summary of the results of the survey is presented
for information." See Annex 3«

The following discussion concerns the responsibilities of othernuclear data groups in the USA: Howerton's data center at Livermore can provide retrievals from the "Reaction Lisf'reference f i l e .
ANC i s one of the centers evaluating nuclear decay dataf including
those of transactinium isotopes. They have supplied some of theevaluations for ENDF/B-17 decay data for nuclear structure data,compilation and evaluation, but so far l i t t l e support for CPND. There is a loose cooperation between the NSRDS (National Standard
Reference Data System) program of the National Bureau of Standards
with the much larger data activities of ERDA. For example, bothsupport the Table of Isotopes Project at Berkeley.

6.

Mr. Ohnuma reports on the activities of the Japanese Study Group.
See Annex 4« Summary: In 1974 a- Study Group on information processing in nuclear physics was started in Japan. A Nuclear Reaction
Data File (NRDF) has been designed and i s being tested with various
data sets as t r i a l input. The file i s to include a l l kinds of CPND
such as angular distributions, polarisation, asymmetry, excitation
functions, Ä test-system NRDF-1 i s in operation. A first revision,
NRDF—2, i s being designed.
No bibliographic compilation is made;existing files are used.

7-

In the discussion i t i s clarified that the Study Group has not got
the task to start a long—term compilation activity but has the task
to perform an academic study on data processing.

8.

Mr. Lesea reports that the a c t i v i t i e s of NDCC are presently
restricted to neutron nu.olear data. Any extension of the scope
has to be discussed and approved by the Steering Committee•
C-fND for fusion may be considered f i r s t , if at a l l .

9.

Mr. Schmidt reports that the NDS has no manpower for CPND
compilation. NDS may be able to devote about 1/2 manyear to
C-fND dissemination within i t s service area (essentially East
Europe and southern hemisphere) and to coordination by meetings•

10.

Concerning C-fND a c t i v i t i e s in the UK, Mr. Schmidt reads out
a l e t t e r by G. Dearnaley (see Annex 5). Harwell, on the use of
CJfND for surface materials analysis.
(See Footnote.)

11.

In the discussion i t i s stressed that the assessment ofdata needs i s the responsibility of INDC and NEANDC.

Footnote; A relevant working paper was received only after the end of themeeting: B.Rose, "Compilation of cross-sections for ion beam analysis ofmaterials", a working paper for the INDC Sub-Committee on Non-Energy

Minutes12.

Mr. Behrens reports on the C-tTO activities of the ZABD at
Karlsruhe. See Annex 6. ZAED is in charge of creating anational information system for physics data, including
bibliographie services within INIS and retrieval services
from available numerical data files.

13.

In the following discussions, it is pointed out that the
ZAED plans for an index to existing data compilations should
be coordinated with similar plans at NDS and Codata.
(Action 12 )14.

Mr. Brune reports on C-t'ND applications at Studsvik where proton
microoeams are used for surface analysis. Data needs include
primarily excitation functions of proton and deuteron reactions
with light elements such as B, C, N, 0, F, P, S, Cl.

15.

Mr. Behrens reports that a group under Prof. Häuser at theuniversity of Köln, P.R. Germany, measures and compiles lowenergy C^ND which lead over to atomic and molecular reaction
data. The meeting felt that such data should not be discussed
in the present meeting, but that the computerized compilation
systems to be discussed should eventually be designed to allow
for such data.

II. Bibliography
16.

Dunford discusses the differences between existing nuclear
data bibliographies (not considering photonuclear reactions
which is a separate effort in the USA):-"Reaction List" of the Oak Ridge CJ?ND group"Recent References" of the Oak Ridge Nuclear Data -froject-"Cinda" of the neutron data centers.

The USA would not like to continue all three reference compilation
systems as distinct entities but assume the responsibility for
maintaining a CPND bibliography. However, no conclusions have beenreached how this responsibility would be implemented and where in
the USA it would be maintained. Dunford asks for comments about thedesirable features of this compilation, but he suggests that thecenter which will be in charge of it, must be permitted to make thefinal decisions about the structure of the system. Multilateralbibliographic input would be desirable, in particular from the
USSR and Japan.

17
MinutesIn the discussions it is stressed that a unified "bibliographic
system for all nuclear data would lie desirable but that this
could not be implemented under the present conditions. Noneof the existing bibliographic systems is flexible enough toinclude all nuclear data, and simple enough to be suitable formultilateral input and file exchange. The results of the
discussion are summarized in conclusions 4—10« recommendations
2-8, and actions 1-8.

18.

Mr. Behrens suggests that the input to a nuclear data bibliography could eventually be retrieved from INI5. In the discussion it is agreed that this would in principle be highly
desirable, but that this was not possible with the present
status of INIS, as previous contacts between NDS and the IAEA
INIS Section had shown. Further investigations and actionsin this direction were found desirable, see conclusion 11,
recommendation 6, and action 6+7»

19-

The meeting discusses the requirements for a published CPND
bibliography. It is understood that there is a definite need,from the application oriented users' community, for a cumulative
bibliography on "integral CPND" (compare conclusions 1-3).
Considering that only about 5$ of the CPND literature deal with"integral CPND", such a cumulative bibliography would have avolume of one hundred pages at maximum. A regular cumulative
publication at perhaps two-years intervals appears to be desirable
and feasible. A bibliography on "integral CPND", which would beapplication oriented, has no serious overlap with "Recent
References", which is mainly oriented towards basic research.
See the recommendation 7»

20.

Mr. Schmidt announces that the IAEA could publish the CPÎTD
bibliography on two conditions, that is: the file must be
the result of a truly international effort, and the number ofcopies sold must be more than 1000. However, also a publication
as a report of less good quality may be considered.
Mr. Behrens announces that eventually ZABD could publish the
CPND bibliography. Both, NDS and ZAED will investigate their
publication possibilities (see action 8 ) , based on a computer
file provided by the USA. Several participants estimate that
more than 1000 copies of a CPND bibliography could be sold.

21.

Some participants express that in addition to the bibliography
for "integral CPND", a cumulative publication of "Recent
References" would be desirable for the use of the researchcommunity.

MinutesII. B.I
22.

Adopting Exfor for the compilation and exchange of CPHD
Mr. Lemmel gives a summary of the main features of the
Exfor system developed by the four neutron data centres(Annex 7 ) . It is stressed that Exfor defines an exchange
format, and that each of the cooperating centres operates,
according to its needs, different input, storage, computation, or output formats, which are all Exfor compatible.
Exfor is flexible enough to allow for even unusual representations of experimental data, for all kinds ofadditional quantities and parameters, as well as forbibliographic, physics and bookkeeping information. At
the same time Exfor is well enough structured that
identification and processing of the information by thecomputer is possible.
The main problem to be discussed will be the generalizationof the coding of reactions and quantities which are so far
defined for neutron data only.

23. Mr. Mttnzel reports on the CPNIl Exfor system developed by
the Karlsruhe CPHD group. In this system, some additional
keywords and codes were added to the neutron-Exfor systemsuch, that the neutron-Exfor rules remain unchanged. A
first draft of the CPHD Exfor system (Annex 8) had been prepared early 1975« This had been discussed by the four neutron
data centres at their meeting in March 1975» and some conclusions were issued (Annex 9)« To the present meeting, arevised version of the Karlsruhe CPHD Exfor system was submitted (Annex 10 ).
24.

Mr. Ohnuma reports that a computerized conversion between
the Japanese HRDF system and a modified Exfor system seems
to present no principal difficulties. Details of the NRDF/
Exfor compatibility must still be studied.

25. Mr. Sokolovski.j presents sample entries for some CPND functions(Annex 11) prepared at CAIaD in the format of the first versionof the Karlsruhe CPHD Exfor system. He stresses the necessityof having an agreed common format for CPHD and concludes thata modified Exfor system as suggested by Karlsruhe is well suitable for the exchange of CPND. The changes required in Exforshould not /interfere with the work of the neutron data centres.
26. Mr. Dunford states that there is presently in the USA
little financial support for CPHD compilation. But there isstrong interest to have the CPHD exchange format designed as
close as possible to the neutron Exfor system.

19
Minutes27»

In the following discussions it is concluded that there is noalternative Proposal and that the detailed discussions fordeveloping a CJ?ND exchange system should "be "based on thesecond Karlsruhe version of the C-fND Exfor system. See Conclusions 13 + 14. Recommendations 13 + 1 4 . and Actions 13 + 14.

28»

The Participants agree_ that it should be tried to have, on along-term scale, a single Exfor system for C-Pffl) and neutron
nuclear data. Therefore, the modifications of the Exforsystem to "be proposed should "be such that there is no interference with the present neutron Exfor system. They would be
implemented such that any differences between the CPîfiD Exforsystem and the present neutron-Exfor system are computerintelligible by special keywords. Thus it is made possiblethat "the computer programs operating the present neuti'pnExfor system can gradually be expanded to include the specific
C-tTO features, although it is recognized that decisions inthis direction are up to the neutron data centers.

Scope of C-PND compilation

Mr. Münze1 explains the priorities of CPND compilationaccording to his experiences with the users community in
P.Hi Germany.
These are»excitation functions for the formation of residual nuclei inground-state or metastable s t a t e a f t e r prompt gamma deexcitation. The residual nucleus is of primary i n t e r e s t ,disregarding through which reaction i t was formed. For
practical applications the shortest life-times to be considered are in the order of magnitude of a minute.
-

thick target yield data.

both for targets with Z ¿ 4 and projectiles with Z <>1 and A i l .
If necessary, the restriction with respect to Z of p the target material
could be changed.
For building up the file for integral CPND one has to decide on thepriority l i s t for preparing input. After the comparison of different
possibilities the following l i s t was accepted:

if other reactions are compiled they will also be put on the

.20
Minutesf i l e . The extension of the priority l i s t to higher energies andheavier projectiles should "be discussed at a later time.
Primary interest i s in experimental data. But theory and systematics
are also considerad to "be important for deducing excitation functions
for the many reactions for which no experimental data exist.
Deduced data, such as integral cross sections obtained from angular
distributions are not considered (mainly due to manpower limitations),"but such data would be useful.
Absolute and relative data are compiled.
I t i s questionable, whether within a dei'ined scope all existingdata should be compiled or whether a selection with respect toreliability would be feasible. This topic should be taken up
again after more experience has become available.
30.

Mr. Ohnuma explains that the Japanese Study Group i s testing the
MRDF system and has coded a number of complex data. Uo systematiccompilation i s yet envisaged, and therefore no priorities ofreactions, and quantities to be compiled have been established.

31 •Mr. Sokolovski.j says that the USSR needs for non-neutron nuclear
data have been reported at the 1974 Meeting, see INDC(UDS)-6l
page 82. Priorities are approximately in the following sequences1.

fission product decay data2.

nuclear structure data3.

decay data of radioactive nuclei

4«

activation cross-sections by charged particles and photons

5«thick target yield data

For such data, bibliographic and numeric data f i l e s are or will
be maintained. The USSR i s ready to participate in bilateralagreements on the exchange of such data, possibly on the basisof a geographical sharing of compilation workload. For the near
future, the USSR i s looking forward towards a data exchange with
Mr. MUnzel's group and with Mr. Fuller's group. I t i s hopedthat a modified Exfor format as to be defined at this meeting, will
be acceptable also to Mr. Fuller for photonuclear reaction data.
32.

Mr. Dunford says that there exists in the USA the Oak Ridge compilation of CPND (action 10). However, nothing has been added tothis file in the past five years. In the USA i t i s felt that thescope for CPHD compilation should be determined by the prospective
usefulness to customers. The scope outlined by Mr. MUnzel appears
to be suitable both for the bibliography and the numerical datacompilation.

33«

The meeting agrees to restrict the scope of the publishedbibliography and the i n i t i a l CPMD compilation to "integral CPND".
See conclusions 1-3 and recommendation 3. The corresponding
computer systene should, however, be designed such that they allow
also the coding of differential CPHD and photonuclear reaction data.
Heavy-ion reaction data can probably be coded with the Exformodifications agreed at the present meeting.

Evaluation of CPHD

39.

It was found that for CPNB the problems of evaluation are
different from those of neutron data. For many CPND reactions
only a single measurement exists, and for many more there,areno data at a l l . The main purpose of CPKD evaluation i s therefore to give the best guess of unmeasured cross-sections.

40.

A CPFD cross-section library in SHDF/B format has been issued
by BNCSC based on Mr. MUnzel's calculations published in LandoltBörnstein, vol. 1, 5C« This library i s available from the otherpertinent nuclear data centres.
In general, to include CPHD in the ENDF/B format requires a
generalization of t h i s format which i s presently being discussed
in the USA, see annex 13.

CONCLUSIONS AND HECOMMENDA!FIOÍÍS

(Agenda items I, II.B.2)
Conclusions;
C 1.

The need of various users for compilations of charged-particle
nuclear reaction data (CPND), in particular of integral CPND
cross-sections, has been assessed in earlier meetings. It isstrongly felt that the arguments given at these meetings stressing the importance of the compilation of such data, are stillvalid. Therefore, urgency should be given to corresponding
compilation efforts.

C 2.

It is realized that for data applications primarily integral
CPND are needed, and such data should be given priority. Theinterest for differential CPND comes mainly from the researchcommunity.

C 3. In tho present document, the term "integral CPND" is understoodto include- excitation functions for the formation of residual nuclei
in ground-state or metastable state;- thick target yield data;
both for targets with Z > 4 and projectiles of protons andheavier particles.

Re commendationt
R 1. Within the field of CPND, the compilation and exchange of"integral CPND" should be given priority.

CPND Bibliographic System(Agenda item II.A)
Conclusions»
The meeting discussed various possibilities for creating aninternational CPND bibliography, and came to the following
conclusions:

24
Goncl.+Recom.

C 4«"

Since the USA offered, to continue to maintain a worldwide CPÏÏD
bibliography, i t i s suggested that a new appropriate system ora revised form of an existing system "be developed in the USA,but that the following requirements expressed in the meeting
be considered.

G 5«

At present, there exist three nuclear data "bibliographies: Cinda,
Recent References, Reaction List, which are partially overlapping. Por each of them some modifications would be desirable
to make i t suitable as an international GPND bibliography.

C 6.

If a Cinda—type system i s used, more space for the reaction isneeded than in the neutron Cinda, in order to allow also forthe coding of heavy ion reactions. This means, that either thefree text comment field must be shortened to have more space forthe coding of the reaction, or that the system must be expanded
to more than one card per input record.

C 7,

If a Recent-References type system i s used, input and file should
preferably be restricted to the standard BGD character—set, inorder to facilitate international exchange of the f i l e . The labof data origin should possibly be entered in retrievable form
using the Exfor lab-codes. A feature for blocking different
references that refer to the same data set, i s desirable such thata data—set oriented sort i s possible. The data—type (experimental,
theoretical, evaluated) should be entered in retrievable form.

C 8.

In either case, the following features are desirable:a) For charged—particle reactions, information should "be enteredin retrievable form, indicating whether the reference considered
contains integral CPND or other data.
b) Publication in a compact handbook should be possible.
c) The system should be designed such that multilateral input i spossible as well as easy retrievals on a variety of computers.

C 9»

The new system should be capable of including, by machine conversion,
the old bibliography of the Reaction List and perhaps the relevant partof Recent References, even if these machine converted entries do not
fulfil all of the specifications of the new system (example: missing
lab. code).

C 10.

The feasibility of having a single bibliography system for all
nuclear data, including neutron data, should be investigated.

C 11.

I t is desirable to investigate the feasibility of deriving a
nuclear data bibliographic file from a more general bibliographic
system, especially from IMS.

25
CoAcl.+Recom.
Recommendations:
R 2. The meeting appreciates the offer of the USA to continue toassume the primary responsibility, in cooptre.tion with otherdata centres, for a worldwide CPND bibliographic system. It
is recognized that the centre responsible for this systemshould decide on its structure, but it is recommended that thefollowing features be seriously considered when developing the
CPND bibliographic system:a) Publication of a compact handbook should be possible, whichshould be data-set oriented rather than reference oriented.
Action2.

b) Publication of such a handbook for "integral CPND" only
should be possible.
c) A cumulative publication including earlier CPND
bibliographies should be possible.
d) The coding of the CENT) reactions should allow for heavy-ion
reactions; retrievals should be possible for target nuclei,
incident particles, outgoing particles and residual nuclei.
e) The input and the master file should employ the standard
BCD character set.
f) Entries should contain the laboratory of data origin using
the Exfor lab—codes.
R 3«

Actions3-+4.

Action5-

It is recommended that CAJaD and a Japanese center regularly
provide input to the CPND bibliographic system for the Russianand Japanese language publications. This input should havethe general form of Recent References, until such time that
the USA in consultation with the cooperating centers determinesthat another input format is needed.

R 4« Priority should be given to the coverage of journals. It should
be investigated how many important data sets are published onlyin laboratory—reports or conference—proceedings. Depending on
the outcome of such investigations, such literature should
eventually be included in the CPND bibliography.
R 5«

The bibliographic information should be freely exchanged, andthe master file should be easily accessible by all cooperating
centres and groups. The centre in charge should send, in regularintervals (e.g. every six months), an update tape of the CPND bibliography to the Karlsruhe CPND group and to CAJaD, and to other cooperating centres upon request.

Actions
6.+7.

R 6.

It is recommended that ZAED and NDS investigate the feasibility ofderiving input for a nuclear data bibliographic file from a moregener?J bibliographic system, especially from DTIS.

Action8.

R 7«

The meeting recommends the publication of a cumulative bibliography
to "integral CPND". Later cumulative publications should be envisaged at two-years intervals. NDS and ZAED should investigate
the technical possibilities for such publications based on a com— •puter file provided by the USA. A draft of the bibliography should
be submitted to the cooperating centres for discussion.

R 8. The published bibliography should include information on evaluatedintegral CPND, but references to experimental and evaluated data
must be distinguishable.

Comp_ilation_and_exçhange_of_CPND("Agenda item B.2)
The meeting discussed the scope and distribution work "between the
CPND compilation groups and came to the following conclusions:
C 12.

The meeting recognizes the value of past compilation activities andurges the continuation and possibly the expansion of these a c t i v i t i e s .
In particular, the efforts of the Karlsruhe CPND group for a systematiccompilation of "integral CFND" in the Exfor format i s recognized as
most valuable. The recommendations of t h i s meeting are "based on theassumption that the Karlsruhe CPND group will maintain the Master
Data File for "integral CPND", which would be the core of an i n t e r national network of CPND compilation and exchange.

Recommendations:
R 9> Existing CPND compilation a c t i v i t i e s should possibly be expanded.
They should continue within an international coordinated effortof CPND compilation and exchange. All CPND should be freely exchanged, and the computer f i l e s should be easily accessible bya l l cooperating centres and groups.
R 10.

The Karlsruhe CPND group should maintain the CPND Master Data P i l e .
Data compiled at other centers should be sent to Karlsruhe for updating the Master Data P i l e . The Karlsruhe CPND group should makeavailable to the cooperating centres either copies of the entire
Master Data File or copies of update tapes.

CPND evaluation(Agenda item II.C)
Conclusions:
C 18.

CFND evaluation has been discussed. A detailed discussion ofevaluation methods appears to be premature, but should be reconsidered at some later time.

C 19.

The purpose of CPND evaluation is to give users recommended
values for the quantities they are interested in. Any methodof obtaining such recommended values is included in the term"evaluation". The users should be supplied-also with information about the reliability of the data.

C 20.

Evaluated CPND can be included in the CPND Exfor file in sucha way that they can be readily distinguished from other typesof data. It is however recognized that Exfor is not suitable
for a comprehensive evaluated CPND library similar in concept
to ENDF/B.

The Reaction is coded in the form
(Z-S-A_(P^N+HE3+4A) Z-S-A, Quantity, Data-Type)
Some special rules are:a. The residual nucleus is usually defined as the heaviest of thereaction products. In certain cases (compare items f. and i.
below) the residual nucleus is not defined.
b.

Different outgoing particles within the reaction-parentheses
are separated by plus-signs.

c.

The outgoing particles are sorted such that smaller Z and A
comes first. N sorts before •?, and T sorts before HE3.

d.

Within the reaction-parentheses, all particles heavier thanan alpha particle, are coded in the same way as the targetnucleus .

e.

A number immediately preceding a particle code indicatesthe multiplicity of this particle, e.g. 4A in the example

Some special reactions are coded in the following form:(Z-S-A(P,ABS), - proton absorption(Z-S-A (P,TOT),- total cross-section for protons(Z-S-A(P,T+X), - emission of tritons and possibly otherunidentified particles after proton absorption
In the above examples, the residual nucleus, in general, cannot be coded.

An unidentified complex reaction leading to a specificresidual nucleus, e.g. when the target is a sample withnatural isotopic abundance, is coded in the following(Z-S-O(P,X)Z-S-A,Scattering may be coded as(Z-S-A(P,P)Z-S-A,But when elastic, inelastic or total scattering must be

In the "parameter" subfield information about integral ordifferential cross-sections is given. See the neutron-Exforcodes DA LEG DA/DE etc. For integral cross-sections the code
SIG is introduced.
In the "particleT-oonsidered" subfield, the particle-code isentered to which the code in the "parameter" field refers.
The use of this code is the same as in the neutron-Exfor.
The "modifier" subfield contains any additional information about
the representation of the data, e.g. REL.

9.

The Data-type field may include codes such as EX-P or THEO.

10.

The Karlsruhe C-fND-Exfor sample presented contains pointers,
attached to a data—column heading, in col. 1 instead of col.

11.

The coding of multiple reactions within the same subentry as
used in Entry 60001.003 was accepted. This formalism should
not be used for any data types that are not directly interrelated.

12.

The proposed coding of information under the new keyword
DECAY-DATA was accepted, although there was some concern
about the readability.

13«

The keyword -PART-DET remains reserved for use in the way of
the neutron Exfor. The information format and contents as
proposed by Karlsruhe is to be entered under the new keyword

Quantity-codes : The code PCR is not necessary. The generalized
meaning of IND and CUM is accepted. For outgoing particles thecode COMPLEX is changed to X. The code SF is accepted for use
under RAD-DET and DECAY-DATA but not for use under REACTION,
where a zero indicates spontaneous reactions without an incident
particle.

Annex I
Karlsruhe
Karlsruhe Charged Particle Group
Opening Statement
H. Münze1

In a summarizing report A. Calamand has shown, that there aremany users of Charged Particle Nuclear Data (CPND) working
in such different fields as Material Science, Medicine, Reactortechnology, Biology, Nuclear Physics, Chemistry, etc. According
to this report the majority of these users are especiallyinterested to get informations about the amount of activity
formed during irradiations. For this purpose they need formation
cross sections or thick target yields for the ground and/or
the metastable states of the produced radionuclides. Therefore
we, i.e. the Charged Particle Group at the Institute forRadiochemistry of the Nuclear Research Center Karlsruhe,
decided to concentrate our efforts on this kind of "integral
aaia". We are, of course, aware of the fact, that there are users
who are interested in data about angular distributions etc
But because about 95% of the publications dealing with CPND
contain such differential data, a very large number of scientists
would be needed for a complete compilation. Before starting
such a program one should check very carefully, if the time
saved on the side of the users justifies this effort.
The scope, content and format of the CPDN - File proposed by
the Karlsruhe Charged Particle Group shall be described briefly.
As already mentioned we propose, that the compilation should
contain all published values for the above defined integral
data. The file should include absolute and relative data as

42Annex I
well as evaluated data. For practical reasons
we restricted the compilation to targets with Z > 4 andprojectiles with Z ? l and A > 1. The file should also containall relevant data needed for ai evaluation, like the decay data
used in the analyses of the measured data.
In respect to the bibliography we will rely on the "McGowan
Reaction List" and on the INIS - output.
In the moment we do not intend to evaluate recommended datafrom the experimental values. But we consider to check the
different calculation procedures with the aim to provide theusers with "calculated" excitation functions and thick target
yields.
In the last year we were actively engaged in developing aformat for the storage of the compiled data on a magnetic tape.
After checking different possibilities we decided to go ahead
with a modified version of the EXFOR - System. The proposed
modifications should be discussed in detail during thismeeting.
We assume that most of the users prefer strongly to have thecompilation available on their desk. Therefore, the major output
of our compilation efforts will be some kind of book, whichshould be updated periodically Sie will also provide as service
to german users retrievals from the file. We hope, that otherCenters, like the NDS of the IAEA, will provide similar services
to users outside of the FRG.
Our plans for the future are not fixed yet. Just now it is again

ABSTRACTThe article describes the present status of collection, evaluation anddissemination of non-neutron nuclear data by the Centre for Data on
the Structure of the Atomic Nucleus and Nuclear Reactions, USSR State
Committee on the utilization of Atomic Energy. The structure of theCentre itself, i t s computer facilities and i t s co-operation with outside organizations are indicated and i t s functions and plans ofactivity are considered.
The Centre for Data on the Structure of the Atomic Nucleus and Nuclear
Reactions (CAJaD) of the USSR State Committee on the Utilization of Atomic
Energy was established in 1972 and i s the organization in the USSR dealing
with collection, evaluation and dissemination of non-neutron nuclear data.
The Centre not only collects data and analyses requests from users of
non-neutron nuclear data "but also organizes work on evaluation of data which
are Heeded for solving scientific and technical problems and for developing
fundamental research in the USSR. The evaluation work i s carried out both by
the Centre's staff and by qualified groups of physicists from institutes of
the USSR State Committee on the Utilization of Atomic Energy, the USSR Academyof Sciences and higher educational institutions. Preparation of recommendations
on uniform methods of nuclear data evaluation forms a large part of the Centre's
activities.
The Centre has a 1010-V and a NOVA-120O computer. I t has a system of programmes for storage of data in the form of files on magnetic tapes and for datapreparation for input into a library and formation of libraries, and also
possesses a retrieval programme and a set of auxiliary programmes needed toanswer data requests and to meet the Centre's needs for the intermediate stagesof work.

STRUCTURE AND TECHNICAL EQUIPMENT OP THE CENTRE

The Centre*s o r g a n i z a t i o n a l s t r u c t u r e i s determined by i t s functions, as
reflected in the t i t l e of this article. At pyesent, i t has a staff of 15(6 physicists and 9 technicians) forming five groups.
Analysis of Requests. Compilation and Evaluation Group
This group is responsible for generation and maintenance of files, forevaluated non-neutron nuclear data and other files called for by users' requests.
It performs analysis of requests from users of non-neutron nuclear data andprepares replies to these requests. A part of the compilation and evaluation worki s done by this group. In addition, one of i t s functions is to develop uniform
methods of evaluating non-neutron nuclear data and to recommend these methods toevaluation and compilation groups in other institutes. I t also carries out preliminary analysis of data received at the Centre before they go to the literaturescanning group.

THE CENTRE'S CO-OPERATION WITH OUTSIDE ORGANIZATIONS

I t has already been mentioned t h a t t h e Centre i s t h e main organization i n t h e
USSR d e a l i n g with c o l l e c t i o n , evaluation and dissemination of non-neutron nuclear
data.
The Nuclear Data Commission of the USSR State Committee on the Utilization of
Atomic Energy and i t s Co-ordination Group for Non-neutron Nuclear Data determine
the whole activity of the Centre.
In co-operation with the Centre and on the basis of analysis of users* requests,
the Co-ordination Group determines the range of problems relating to evaluation andcompilation of non—neutron nuclear data to be handled by the appropriate groups at
the institutes of the USSR State Committee on the Utilization of Atomic Energy, the
USSR Academy of Sciences and higher educational institutions. The Co-ordination
Group also prepares recommendations for the research laboratories of these institutes
on the measurement of the necessary non-neutron nuclear data and may amend theirresearch plans. The Centre is responsible for overseeing compliance with the recommendations of the Nuclear Data Commission and the Co—ordination Group.
3.

COMPUTER SOFTWARE OP THE CENTRE

The Centre's technical facilities permit substantial automation of both the
preparation process and the use of available data.
At present, the Centre has three types of computer library. The first is the"reference" library with bibliographic references containing information on authors
and the place of publication and a short abstract prepared according to definite
rules facilitating automation of the process of searching for papers on a given
subject. Such references will henceforth be called abstracts for short. The second,the "data" library, includes experimental data on the properties of specific nuclei.
The evaluated data available at the Centre are kept separately, finally, the "little"
library is an intermediate one and used mainly for temporary storage of information
which is in the process of preparation for inclusion in the other two libraries andfor filing the computer software and other textual materials.
Por technical preparation and use of the above libraries there is a set ofprogrammes, which can be divided into three parts:
4.

programmes for expansion of the libraries;
duplicating and auxiliary programmes;
programmes for work using the libraries.

FUNCTIONS AND PLANS OP ACTIVITE"

The Centre has to provide non-neutron nuclear data for the following principal
areas of data application:-

reactor engineering;
controlled fusion research;technical methods for safeguards systems;
isotopic analysis of substances by nuclear-physical methods;
production and application of artificial radioisotopes;
shielding and dosimetry;
medical applications of radioisotopes;
nuclear physics, astrophysics, etc.

49
•Annex 2
CAJaD
In reactor engineering, a substantial part of the evaluation work will "beassociated with the problems of monitoring neutron fluxes inside the reactor.
For this purpose, i t i s necessary to know:(a)the thermal and resonance activation cross-sections of elements usedas neutron detectors, and the lifetimes and decay schemes of productnuclei; the same data are needed for the elements of structural
materials and nuclear fuel in order to make allowance for the 'background;(b)the activation cross-sections of elements used as threshold detectors,
and the lifetimes and decay schemes of the product nuclei.

One of the main functions of the Centre i s "to supply non-neutron nuclear datafor controlled fusion research, which is "being conducted intensively in the USSR.
This activity requires data on the interaction cross-sections of light nuclei forenergies of several MeV. Data are also needed on the gamma-ray spectra and l i f e times of nuclei generated as a result of interaction "between the fusion reaction
products and the elements of structural materials and materials which can be used
for tritium breeding.
Data are very important for work connected with the production and applicationof a r t i f i c i a l radioisotopes, for research on activation analysis using charged
particles and for medical and "biological research.
Apart from data on the structure of nuclei, their radioactive transformations
and reaction cross-sections, data are essentially needed on the stopping power ofvarious substances and on the paths of scattering of nuclear radiation energy i ndifferent media.
The above l i s t of the principal areas of applied science and technology
requiring non-neutron nuclear data cannot, of course, be regarded as final. The
current trend of applying methods developed for the purpose of solving nuclear
problems to other areas will undoubtedly give r i s e t o new, and perhaps not evenpurely nuclear, functions.
The practical requirements of non-neutron nuclear data are, on the whole,reflected quite fully in the papers presented by A. Lorenz and A. Calamand at theConsultants* Meeting and the Specialists' Meeting held i n April-May 1974,[lNDC(NDS)-6l] and the requirements of Soviet scientists do not in practice differ
from those of other countries.
For the next few years the Centre's activities will be focussed on thefollowing:-

generation and maintenance of a file of evaluated data on the propertiesof fission-product nuclei;
work on a f i l e of evaluated data on the structure of the nucleus;
generation and maintenance of a file of experimental data on gamma
radiation accompanying radioactive transformations of nuclei;
compilation activity i n the field of the charged—particle and photon
beam activation cross-section and the yield of reaction products;
generation and continuous updating of the bibliographic reference f i l e
including abstracts of papers on nuclear structure, radioactive radiations
and nuclear reactions.

It i s very difficult and practically impossible in the area of chargedparticle-induced nuclear reactions to expand a c t i v i t i e s greatly on collection,
evaluation and dissemination of non-neutron nuclear data without combining theefforts of data centres in different countries. In the absence of a clearly definedsystem of international co-operation i t will not be possible to carry out work ofsufficient quality on compilation and evaluation of non-neutron nuclear data andthe work of national centres may be made substantially more difficult.

THE CENTRE'S ACTIVITIES IN COMPILATION OP DATA ON CH^ED-PARTICLE-INDUCEDHUCHEAR REACTIONS

As we have pointed out earlier [l],during the first stage of i t s activities, theCentre devoted i t s attention mainly to generating libraries of key-word abstracts.
This decision was due to the realization that no work on compilation and evaluationof expérimental and theoretical digital material was possible without a good knowledge of the world literature.
The key-word abstracts are "based on the format used in the Nuclear Data Project,and in the j ournals Nuclear Physics and Physical Review C.
Examples of the abstracts can be seen in the publications of the Centre £2] andof the Data Centre of the Leningrad Institute of Nuclear Physics C3]» These were
issued in order to acquaint Soviet and foreign scientists with such abstracts; theirmain purpose was to obtain critical comments from scientists on the form and content
of the abstracts.
At the meetings held last year at the IAEA i t was recommended that samples ofabstracts should be sent to Dr. D. Horen at NIP for analysis and comment. We have
not yet seen the results of such analysis, although i t i s necessary not only for us
but also for all those who are parties to this international collaboration.
The abstracts prepared in the USSR do, of course, differ in form from those of
NUP. This is due to differences in the peripheral devices of their computers. However, these differences are not substantial. In the case of exchange of magnetic
tapes, any code acceptable to a l l participants in the exchange can be used. Our viewi s as follows: ASCII codes are sufficient for international exchange of key-wordabstracts, while adherence to only BCD or EBCDID codes used in EXFOR will give riset o difficulties.
The possible differences in the content and syntax of abstracts are much more
substantial. In Nuclear Data Sheets, abstracts of papers on nuclear reactions containing no data on the structure of the nucleus are published in the form of incomplete
sheets, on the basis of which i t is difficult to compare the USSR abstracts with thoseof NDP.
The analysis performed by the Centre has shown that the abstracts on nuclear
reactions published in Nuclear Physics are sufficiently accurate in syntax and allow
a relatively simple programme for selecting the necessary papers. This cannot be saidof the abstracts published in Physical Review C. In our opinion, the abstracts from
Physical Review are not suitable for direct input into computer storage because ofvery free handling of the syntax. They need remodelling, and this i s what we are doing.
It has already been mentioned above that the published abstracts of Soviet works
are samples. We do not intend in future to publish these abstracts, since there are
special abstracting journals for such publications; we are writing and shall write
abstracts on magnetic tape and provide our customers with information faster than do
the abstracting journals.
The Centre's programme of retrieval of the necessary abstracts from the magnetic tape satisfies for the time being the requirements of Soviet scientists whorequest the Centre to make a literature search.
The Centre receives a large number of requests for preparation of literaturereferences, and the flow of such requests is increasing rapidly. These requests
are highly varied and require, as a rule, complicated selection of papers on thebasis of several criteria at the same time. An ordinary request for references on
charged-particle reactions usually contains several logical combinations of theAND, OR, KO type. For example, a l i s t of references would be requested on a particularchannel of nuclear reaction in the target nucleus group in a specified energy regionof beam particles.

51
Annex 2
CAJaD
Because of the wide extent and variability of the nature of requests we do
not use any internal catalogue for the bibliographic reference f i l e , and eachnew request requires review of the whole tape. Por this reason, we had to develop
a programme which conducts the search on several requests simultaneously and givesout the results on different peripheral devices.
Our Centre now meets requests for bibliographic references from Soviet scient i s t s and, occasionally, from scientists in the CMEA. countries.
Let us consider the question of the possible methods of exchange of abstracts.
As has already been stated, our Centre i s not much troubled by coding problems,since, i n our opinion, they are of secondary importance.
We have been asked to consider two types of input of abstracts into the common
system:centralized;
co-ordinated.
Centralized input seems to mean the method in which each participant in the system
prepares abstracts in i t s own field i n the form of a text, while one participanttransfers them onto the magnetic tape, maintains the master file and provides
copies to a l l others.
Co-ordinated input would mean the method, such as i s used in EXFOR, in which
each participant maintains i t s own master file and sends copies thereof to theothers.
Considering the relatively successful experience of the neutron data centres,
the second method should evidently be preferable. Each abstract will contain a mark,for example in the index, indicating where i t was prepared and to whom one shouldrefer i n case of difficulties with the text.
Abstracts could be exchanged every three months and uniformity in their preparation achieved within a year by correspondence.
The work on the compilation and exchange of nuclear data on charged-particle
reactions can be started only when a particular format of data recording has been
adopted. The EXFOR format i s not suitable in i t s present form for recording data
relating to charged—particle reactions. However, as has been shown by Professor
Münzel's group, with some modification the EXFOR format can be used to record data 'obtained i n nuclear reactions (Memo 4C-3/121). Neutron data centres, too, have nofundamental objections to making such changes (Memo 4C-I/6O). Thus, the general
problem of format may be deemed to have been settled. There remain only some details
to be clarified. I t should however be borne i n mind that the existing EXFOR should
be modified in such a manner as would involve the least possible complication in
the work of the neutron centres.
Charged-particle-induced nuclear reactions are so much more varied thanneutron reactions that i t can hardly be expected that any reaction can be written
in the old thesauri, which have to be updated constantly as compilation of nuclear
data progresses.
The current trend in the development of research on charged-particle reactions
shows that in the next few years the physics of nuclear reactions will become predominantly the physics of heavy-ion reactions. I t i s therefore necessary right now
to try t o describe the studies with heavy ions. As an experiment, we are planningto perform this work covering the studies on heavy-ion reactions in progress at
the 1.7. Kurchatov Institute of Atomic Energy.

52
Annex 2CAJaD
At present, i t i s necessary to clarify the details of modification of EXFOR
for application in charged-particle reactions.
1.

I t would "be useful to recommend that the neutron data centres should,
i f possible, transmit to the centres participating in non-neutron dataexchange a l l block schemes of programmes with which they prepare anddecode information in KXPOR so as to accelerate and standardize inputof the new format for charged particles.

2.

Charged-particle reactions are observed even now when the gamma quantum
precedes the neutron. Perhaps, in fields corresponding to secondary(emerging) particles, particles should be located as the mass increases
so that deviation from the established sequence would indicate that thisparticle emerges f i r s t .

3.

In describing charged-particle reactions i t should be compulsory to use
the keyword SAMPLE, since charged-particle reactions are accompanied frequently by chemical transformations in the target material and knowledgeof the nature of the sample during data evaluation permits independent
assessment of the measurement accuracy. This section should include information not only on the sample but also on the specific density of the beam on
the target, which i s an indication of the intensity of the chemical transformations.

4.

The word FACILITY now means only a charged-particle accelerator. I t i s however important to indicate the type of the chamber where the reaction understudy was conducted, and, in particular, whether or not there i s an inlet
port, whether or not the chamber has differential pumping, and so on. The
appropriate notations should be included in the thesaurus.

5.

Memo 4C-3/121 (6000100100003 and 6O001O01OOO09) introduces the key-word
MONITOR and refers to two reactions, one of which i s unpublished. I t i s
not understood under which SUBENTRY and according to what- standard thecross-sections are calculated. It would be useful to include in such casesa column MONIT or STAND in the DATA section, which gives the standard crosssection. Otherwise comparison with other works will be very difficult.

6.

HALF-LIFE should be included when the data are based substantially on thisparameter. This i s in fact the same as MONITOR.

7.

In Memo 4C-1/6O, paragraph 5» concern i s expressed about what will happen
i f the number of centres becomes more than nine. The same question may be
asked also in the case of the number of papers in the file of any centre.
What will happen i f the number of papers exceeds 10 000? There i s no doubtthat this situation is to be expected in the next 5-7 years in the case of
charged-particle reactions. At present column 67 gives the number of thecentre. For non-neutron centres, column 67 should contain the index C(or any other), while the centre's identification in the form of a twodigit decimal number should appear in columns 65 and 66m In future, index C
may be replaced by one more position for the number of papers contained at
the centre.

The above suggestions obviously do not-require radical remodelling of theexisting EXFOR system. The International Nuclear Data Committee should be requested,
at i t s next meeting, to entrust to NDS the work of editing the EXFOR Manual andthesauri so that they could be used to describe data obtained in charged-particle
reactions. In this case, i t should perhaps be borne in mind that i t may soon be
the turn of data on radioactivity and structure. Maintenance and improvement of
thesauri should be in the same hands in order to prevent any possible confusion.
In this matter, NDS should be given full authority.

53
Annex 2CAJaD
The distribution of the work on the compilation of nuclear data obtainedin charged-particle reactions should, in our opinion; "be "based on the geographicalprinciple. This is supported by our experience, though not very extensive, in thetranslation of data into the EXFOR-KFK format, which indicated the need to contact
the authors directly. This would be more ample and convenient if the geographicalprinciple is applied.
Our Centre has now received the suggestions of Dr. E.G. Puller andProfessor N. Münzel regarding exchange of experimental data of interest to theappropriate parties. The Co-ordination Group and the Centre have recognized thiswork as acceptable and mutually beneficial, and it has started. How is this workorganized? On the basis of the recommendations of the meeting held in Vienna in
April 1974 and with the agreement of Professor Munzel and the approval of the Coordination Group, our Centre convened a meeting which was attended by representatives of the institutes working on similar subjects (institute of Atomic Energy,
Moscow State University, Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology, Institute ofPhysics and Power Engineering, etc.). The meeting was informed of the suggestion ofProfessor Münzel, and it was decided that researchers would submit their data innumerical form in the appropriate format. The specimen format should be provided
by the Centre. However, the final version of the format is not yet available, although
it is urgently needed for progress of work on the compilation of charged-particle
reaction data.
It will thus be evident from the foregoing that, as regards compilation of
charged-particle reaction data, the Soviet Union is prepared to participate on amutually advantageous basis in selective compilations as, for example, in thearea of data on yield from a thick target and of reactions leading to the formation of radioisotopes, since at present it is practically impossible to cover
everything relating to charged-particle reactions. Any other suggestions received
at the Centre will be considered, and if the Co-ordination Group approves, adecision will be taken on developing activities in the field of research concerned.
After clarifying the format, our Centre is prepared to start regular exchangeof digital data within a period not exceeding six months. The frequency of theexchange can be settled by discussion. This could be once in three months or oncein six months but obviously not once a week.
Apart from the lack of a uniform format, we are held up in this matter by
the following circumstance. The Centre's facilities are suitable for reading
IBfl tapes but we are not sure that we can read any tape, since we have as yet
little experience in this matter. It would be of great interest to see samplesof magnetic tape recordings at the existing centres and offer them samples ofour recordings, i.e. to carry out an experimental exchange in the near future.
This could indicate whether or not it is necessary to acquire new equipment. The
experimental tape should, of course, be accompanied by the corresponding print-out.
In the near future, the Centre does not propose substantially to develop
activities on evaluation of nuclear data obtained from charged-particle reactions.
In a number of cases, the Centre either carries out itself, or has other organizations carry out, selective evaluations.
As regards charged-particle reactions, especially the energy dependence ofreaction cross-sections, it is necessary to make an essential distinction between
two regions: resonance and smooth. Evaluation in the resonance region is very
difficult, a-n^ here it may be simpler to perform an experiment than try to combine
widely differing data. In the case of the smooth dependence, the neutron data
evaluation methods which are being developed and which already exist can be quite
useful and the experience of the neutron data centres should be taken into account.

54
Annex 2CAJaD
In our opinion, the theoreticians specializing in nuclear reactions should
not be forgotten. They can calculate, for example, the dependence of cross-sections
on the basis of a model representation, i . e . in essence they perform an evaluation,
since this calculation i s then compared with experiment. Therefore, our duty here i s
t o provide the most complete experimental material to the theoreticians so that they
can choose the best model and then give the necessary evaluation.

S. Pearlstein

August 25, 1975

The purpose of the survey was to determine how existing compilations
and evaluations of nuclear structure and charged particle data are generally
regarded by the scientific community and to collect constructive suggestions
that might be offered. For this purpose it was not deemed necessary orpractical to survey more than a reasonably-sized segment of the scientificcommunity. An appropriate list of names was solicited from leaders in bothbasic and applied scientific activities. Although the majority of thosecontacted and those responding were engaged in basic research,we believe
the survey also adequately reflects the concerns of those engaged in appliedresearch.

SUMMARY OF SURVEY RESULTS
I. Scope and Audience of Survey
In summarizing the results of this questionnaire the following facts
should be noted:
1. Approximately 410 questionnaires were sent out.
2.

135 replies were received. Several replies were thecumulative response of a research group. This number includes
copies forwarded by recipients to people not on the originallist.

3. The replies were broken into the following catagories:a.

Basic research

86%

b.

Applied research

10%

c.

The format for experimental data was almost equally divided between

desk-top book (52%) and computer-readable files (48%).

Note:of the82 replies expressing a desire to have experimental.data available,
only 49 gave a preference in formats.
C.

Several general conclusions about the type of experimental data

desired could be drawn from the survey.
were almost universally desired.

Level and decay data properties

Coulomb excitation, reaction cross section,

excitation function, isobaric analog, and L-transfer data were strongly
desired.

Many replies also expressed the need for coincidence data,

No definite conclusions could be obtained for data relating to fewnucleon interactions since the survey had been heavily biased toward

Also,

as has been noted above, survey returns were heavily weighted towards
basic research.

Finally, many replies noted that the choice of

publication was dictated by currency (e.g. Table of Isotopes was outof date so the Nuclear Datasheets were chosen, or vice versa).

The general conclusions drawn about the type of evaluated data

desired parallel closely the conclusions drawn about the experimental
data (see III.C.) with the exception that there is less of a desire
for evaluated reaction data.

However, there was still a strong desire

for evaluated cross sections and some desire expressed for the remaining quantities discussed in III.C.

Also, as noted in III.C. no

definite conclusions could be drawn about few-nucleon data.

Report on the Activities of the Japanese Study Group

E. Ohnuma
Tokyo Institute of Technology.History
A study group for "Information Processing in Nuclear Physics"
has started in Japan in 1974 as one of the 22 subgroups in the
project for "Advanced Information Processing of Large Scale overa Broad Area". This project, headed "by Prof. Shimanouchi (Univ.
Tokyo), has started its three—year experimental period in 1973
Under a special fund from the Japanese Government.

Members
The members of our group are:Hajime Tanaka (chairman), Department of Physics, Hokkaido Univ.
Tasuhisa Abe (acting secretary), Research Institute for Fundamental
Physics, Kyoto Univ.
Mitsuo Sano (theoretical nuclear physics), Department of Physics,
Osaka Univ.
Mitsuji Kawai (theoretical nuclear physics), Department of Physics,
Tokyo Institute of Technology
Hidetsugu Ikegarai (experimental nuclear physics), Research Center
for Nuclear Physics, Osaka Univ.
Hajime Ohnuma (experimental nuclear physics), Department of Physics,
Tokyo Institute of Technology
Masatomo Togashi (system engineering), Department of Physics,
Hokkaido Univ.

Aim of the activity
We have agreed on the following points. As far as bibliographic
information and nuclear-structure information are concerned, we should
support currently working groups rather than start an entirely new
project. What is needed now is a data file for charged-particle-

70
Annex 4Japan

induced reactions. Therefore we should work on charged-particlenuclear-reaction data preferably designing a prototype of a
"Nuclear Reaction Pata Pile" (NRDF), which will in the future
supplement the "Nuclear Structure Data File" (NSDF) developed at
Oak Eidge. In NRDF, experimental data such as angular distributions,polarization, asymmetries, excitation functions, etc., should be
stored in digital form. Associated information such as experimental
conditions should also be stored in order to make future evaluation
possible.

General backgroundIn. the discussion it has been pointed out that traditional
media of information exchange - such as scientific papers in journals
are becoming quite insufficient and unsatisfactory, as a result of
the increasing amount of information, rising costs for publication,eto. Por example, more and more the emphasis is on discussions inrecent publications rather than on experimental procedure and results.
This is partly due to the "page limit" policy of many journals, andpartly due to the increasing number of "black boxes" in experiments.
Our hope is that such a data file as we have in mind would provide
us with a new medium of exchanging scientific information.
In this regard we should call attention to the following points
in designing a prototype of ÏÏRDP.
(1) The system should be as flexible and versatile as possible inorder to meet the demands resulting from the progress of nuclear
physics and variety of requests.
(2) The system should be able to describe experimental conditions
in a clear and compact way. These descriptions should include information on targets, on beam characteristics, and on detectors.
The detector information should tell not only the kinds of detectors
used, but also their logical structure (e.g., in coincidence, anticoincidence, etc.)

A test system« NRDF-1
In order to obtain a general idea of the workability of NRDF,
several published papers were picked up and analyzed, and the information in them was listed. After discussions among ourselves as
Veil as wiiîi nuclear physicists cralsiuö the gr-öup and with systemengineers, acceptable input, output, and retrieval forms have been ,,tentatively decided. A test system for a HITAC-8250 computer (64-kB
memory with two 15-MB disks) has been developed. This test system iscalled NBDF-1.

71"
Annex 4Japan

NEDF—1 is written in PL-1; it takes a total of about 50-kB
memory, can be overlaid, and consists of three major parts, namely:(1)

Input routineThis part is to read in cards, interpret descriptive data,
check for syntax errors,pick up items that can be used for retrieval,express input data in the form of internal networks, and store them.
(2) Output routineThis routine is to read in requests from cards or from keyboard,
analyze the input command, and make proper responses. It searches
for data and prints them out on request.
(5) Maintenance routineThis part is to create a data base, correct data for errors,delete data, etc. It is the most important part of the whole
program and protects the data area or data file from error inputs
and misoperation of the computer.
NEDP—1 has the following features that EXFOR does not have.
(a)

It can handle logical arithmetics.

computer to another.

Annex 4
Japan

Because of these features, 2JRDF-1 can take more subtle and.
sophisticated descriptions - e.g., of detector systems. We thinkt h i s is important since the information we are trying to store i s
not raw data in the s t r i c t sense of the word "but rather a sort ofprocessed data. In order to make further evaluation possible, i t
i s essential to include information regarding how the raw data
had "been processed by the authors. We can use comments for suchdescriptions, but i t makes data bulky and clumsy and our data f i l e
not much different from papers.
The remaining features are quite similar to those of EXFOR.
We think the conversion between URDF-1 and EXFOR very simple,
although conversion from NRDF-1 to EXFOR either loses a considerable
portion of the information or requires that i t be put in as comments,
and the information stored in a converion from EXFOR to NRDF-1 i squite incomplete.

Future pxan
It has been decided recently that the special fund will be
continued for three more years — that i s , from 1976 to 1978« The"budget of our group during this period will he about 20,000,000 yen(about S 70,000) per year. By the end of 1976, the present computer
will have been modified by (l) increasing the core memory to 128 kB,(2) attaching a 200-MB disk, and (3) adding an MT handler.
On the basis of our experience, a revised version of the system t o be called NKDF-2 - will be designed and will be working by theend of I976. Then, we think i t possible to start collecting actual
data, provided that we r e s t r i c t ourselves to certain specific typesof reaction, such as (d.p) and (p.d) reactions, or a l l singlenucleon—transfer reactions. A crude estimate of the cost, memorys i z e , running time, e t c . , for such a system indicates that the projecti s not impracticable i f moderately financed by the Government.
The biggest problems before us are those associated with the
input, namely:
(1)
(2)
(3)

How should liumer i cal data be collected ?
Who will write down the input sheets ?
How many punchers will be required to convert them to cards ?

A crude estimate t e l l s us that about 10 cards/year = 4 1 10*
cards/day will have to be punched if a l l kinds of charged-particleiriduööa reactions a.xe tu be compiled. This nuiûbsr " i l l be reduced
considerably/if we select only certain types of reactions. If the
reduction^factor i s assumed to be 10, the required punching rate will
be io5 cards/year =» 400 cards/day. This much can be taken care of"by one puncher.

73/7
Annex iJapan

The estimate of 105 cards/year implies that approximately 10 000
data sheets have to "be written per year. If inputs are derived frompublished papars or preprints, a single person possessing an adequate
knowledge of hhe system and of nuclear physics may he at>le to write
10 sheets a day. This means five such persons would need to work
full time, and at least one specialist would he needed to supervise
them and check the sheets for errors.
An even much greater problem seems to be the collection ofdata. To start with we will have to either read graphs in papers
or send special forms to he filled in by the authors. The latter is
far more desirable. The form to be sent to the authors should be
so arranged that the punchers could soon learn to read it an punch
cards directly from it. numerical data read from graphs should bemarked to this effect. The success of our system relies heavily
on the cooperation of other experimental nuclear physicists; andconversely, success of our system will make it much easier to collectdata.
Once the system is in operation, we anticipate that its
compatibility with most computers will allow it to be sent toseveral centers in Japan and to foreign centers that may desire it.
Bata tapes would then be sent to these centers so the information
generated by the project will be accessible to most potential
users. Publication of the data compilations would be technicallyfeasible, but its practicality would have to be assessed on thebasis of a survey of the need and an estimate of the cost.

Concluding remarks
Our experience tells us that no objective compilation ispossible. We believe that all the compilations are biased, andinvolve a greater or less amount of subjective evaluation of one
kind or another. Selection of keywords, for instance, is alreadybased on a prejudice. This is the reason why input forms and thedescriptive part of the data should be as flexible and versatileas possible. It would be different for an application-oriented
compilation, for which methods of measurement are usually establishedand to some extent standardized. If a compilation has started frompurely scientific interest, and its a\m is to help other physicistsof the same field do research in, a more effective way, the system
must be prepared to accept entirely new types of data obtained by a
new experimental technique. Accordingly, the system has to be of
evolving nature, so that it can keep up with the progress of physics.

An Information System for Physics Datain the Federal Republic of Germany

I. Objectives of the Data Information System
The ever increasing number of publications poses serious problems
for scientists and engineers to extract data that are relevant totheir work from the primary scientific and technical literatureand to assess the accuracy of these data. They may at best do soin their special field of research, but in all other cases they,
have to rely on critical data compilations. Critical data compilations are defined here as compilations in which the data are
not only collected and arranged in a special way but in which they
are evaluated by means of definite criteria resulting in some recommended values for the user.
In many fields of physics such data compilations are lacking or
do not fulfil, the requirements of the users, because they areout of date or they are published in places that are not wellknown. This unsatisfactory situation has been confirmed by an
inquiry recently performed by the German Physical Society.
Therefore the Zentralstelle für Atomkernenergie-Dokumentation (ZAED)
located at the Karlsruhe Nuclear Research Center has been commissioneby the German Federal Ministry for Science and Technology to improve this situation in a substantial way by establishing an information system for physical data. For this purpose data compilations
will be provided for a number of subfields of physics which will
be updated regularly. In addition a bibliography of world-wide datacompilations will be published.

'•'78Annex 6
Germany
11. Scope of the Data Information System
Data from all fields of physics will be entered into the data'nformat ion svstem. The data can be of experimental or theore:.cal type and may be represented in the form of tables, curves
or parametrized , formulae. In special cases an index of bibliographical references will be accepted. The following list gives
representative examples of needs for data which were indicatedby the inquiry of the German Physical Society. This list is notmeant to be exhaustive.
High field superconductors ( e.g. transition temperature, critical fields, critical current density, penetration depth, coherence length)
Low temperature properties of materials (e.g. specific heat,
thermal conductivity, thermal expansion)
niasses and amorphous solids ( e.g. expansion coefficients,
electrical properties, optical properties from the infrared
to the ultraviolet range)
Laser materials ( e.g. wavelengths of laser transitions,spectroscopic properties of rare earth ions in different hostlattices)
Surfaces and thin films (e.M'. adsorption properties of gases
at surfaces, work functions of metals, sputtering data under
ion bombardment)
Properties of semiconductors (e.g. transport properties, bandedges, optical constants, exciton energies, photoconductivity,
lifetimes of charge carriers)
Thermal and thermodynamic properties of solids (e.g. thermoelectric coefficients, phase diagrams of multi-component systems,
thermodynamic properties at high pressures)
Magnetic properties of solids (e.g. magnetization and susceptibility of alloys and of intermetallic compounds, temperaturedependence of magnetic properties, especially at phase transitions
and at critical points)

79
Annex 6
Germany
Opcical properties of solids ( e.g. data of nonlinear opticalcrystals as a function of voltage, temperature and frequency;
optical constants of solids and liquids in the infrared range;most important properties of widely used luminescent materials)
Hard metals (e.g. high temperature behavior, thermal conductivity, thermal expansion, electrical ,•;. nductivity )Atomic nuclei and elementary par.ticles ( e.g. anisotropy coefficients of beta and gamma transitions, nuclei radii, lifetimesof isomeric states, mass yields and fission fragment distributions in nuclear fission, coupling constants and scattering data)
Atoms ( e.g. lifetimes of excited states, isotope shifts, gfactors , polarizabilities, electron collision cross sections
for excitation and ionization, hyperfine structure data)
Molecules (e.R. dipole moments, cross sections for excitationand ionization, reaction cross sections, interatomic potentials,
electron affinities, dissociation energies)
Macromolecules and polymers ( e.g. viscoelastic, thermal,electrical and optical properties, longtime behavior, diffusion
constants)
Plasmas (e.g. broadening of spectral lines in plasmas, excitationand ionization cross sections of gases, ion mobilities, transportcoefficients)
Physical chemistry ( e.g. kinetic parameters for reactions ofradicals in the gaseous and liquid phases, equilibrium parametersof multi-component systems, absorption spectra of shortlived
radicals )III.Form of the Data Compilations
The data compilations will be published as individual booklets
within a series called "Physikdaten/Physics Data" under theauthorship of the compilers. The explanatory text of the compilations will be in German and English. This form of single
pamphlets has the advantage of being allways at hand and ofeasy replacement of older editions by updated revisions. The

80
Annex 6
Germany

compilations will be distributed to research institutes,
industrial laboratories, libraries and individual scientists.
Future plans envisage a computer stored data bank in which datacompilations will be stored on magnetic tape in a format thatallows retrieval of the data by different search criteria.
IV. Organization of the Compilation Activities
The data information system to be established will consist of
a number of groups compiling the data, of a central officefor the management of the system, and of a scientific advisoryboard.
a) The data will be collected and, if necessary, evaluatedby groups of specialists working at research institutions.
These groups which will be established with the assistanceof the German Physical Society, should be actively engaged
in the same field in which they compile data. They should
be responsible for updating their compilations over alonger period of time.
b) The central office of the data information system will belocated at the ZAED and will provide the following services:
1. Technical support to the compiling groups such as providing
references to the relevant primary literature by means ofmagnetic tape services ( e.g. Physics Abstracts (INSPEC),
International Nuclear Information System (INIS), Nuclear
Science Abstracts (NSA), Physikalische Berichte (PB) andother abstract services, if necessary). Also, if requiredby the groups, the full texts of the documents will befurnished.
2. To a certain extent, financial support to the compilinggroups, covering expenses and a honorarium.
3. Editing, publishing and distribution of the data compilations .
4. Computer processing of the data and preparation of datatapes .

81
Annex
Germany
5. Coordination of the compiling activities of the different
groups, organization and management of the whole data
information system,c) A scientific advisory board will be set up to point out
fields in which data are needed, to assist in the selectionof the compiling groups and to rewiew the data compilations.
V.

Bibliography of Existing Data Compilations
In addition to the preparation of new data compilations an
index of already existing compilations will be set up. Such anindex of data compilations will be published in book form andmaintained as a computer stored file that will allow rapid
access to data compilations with regard to a specific requirement

VI. International Cooperation

SHORT GUIDE TO EXFOR

EXFOR - a computerized Exchange FORmat/- presents in a convenientcompact form experimental numerical data as well as physical information necessary to understand the experiment and interpret thedata. Keywords and codes make the information computer intelligible.
The structure of EXFOR is briefly described in the following.

Each EXFÖS "entry" consists of two or more "subentries".

The

first ßulientry of an entry contains information which is common to
all the following subentries of that entry.

Each subentry may in-clude two types of informationi Descriptive text information andnumerical data.

Each item of descriptive text information is

identified by keywords such as TITLE, STANDARD, ISO-QUANT, which may
exhibit a code within parenthesis, such as (GELl), (SCIN) for the
keyword DETECTOR or (TOF), (COINC) for the keyword METHOD.
meaning of most keywords is self-explanatory.

The

The meaning of mostcodes is given in the free text following the code.

Of particularimportance is the keyword "ISO-QUANT". Under this keyword arecoded the "isotope and quantity11 or, in other words, the reaction
and parameter measured.

EXPOR information is available in two formats:the "standard format" primarily designed for the international
exchange of data in computer processable form, andthe "edited format" in which coded information and data tables
are edited in an easily legible form.

The EXFOR structure, the standard and edited formats areillustrated in example 1.

84Annex 7
Neutron Exfor

There are several categories of numerical data:—

In the DATA TABLE the numerical data of the qtxantity definedabov« under ISO-QUANT are given under DATA (or RATIO) together
with the columns of independent variables, errors, etc.

—

Constant numerical values which are common to the entire datatable of a given subentry, are given in the CONSTANT PARAMETERS (also called COMMON in the standard format) section.

Constant numerical values which are common to all subentries
of a given entry, are given in the CONSTANT PARAMETERS (resp.
COMMON) section of the first subentry of that entry.

All numerical data are defined by Data-heading keywords (e.g.
DATA, EN = incident neutron energy, STAND = standard) and by Data-unit
keywords (e.g. EV, M B ) . The list of Data-heading keywords presently
used is given on page 6.
Some data tables may have a more complex structure, for example
there may be several ISO-QUANT per subentry; in this case each ISO-QUANT
is connected to its pertinent column in the DATA TABLE by means of a"pointer".as illustrated in example 2. More generally a pointer canbe used to connect related pieces of information (see example 3 ) .

Subject:

Non-neutron EXFOR developed at Karlsruhe

Please find attached copy of a letter from F. Kronenberger at Karlsruhe
describing some modifications in the EXFOR format adopted at Karlsruhe forits extension to charged-partide induced reaction. Also attached are two
sample EXFOR entries and some dictionary extensions. We submit this proposal
for serious consideration at the 4C-Meeting.
The essential points are:1.

The iso-quant consists of two parts: the nuclear reactiuu, and theparameter of this reaction given in the DATA table. The reaction iscoded in a very straight-forward way as usually given in the literature,for example:,;•(79-AU-197 (A,7N)81-TL-194M, parameter given), or:(39-Y-89 (P,P2N)39-Y-87G+39-Y-87M, parameter given).

The "parameter given" is along the lines of Diet.14 of the classicalEXFOR but excluding the reaction code from the first quantity subfield.
The code "CRO" was introduced for the integral cross section of thereaction considered. To indicate to the computer programs the revised
iso-quant format, the keyword "ISO-QUANT" was replaced by a new keyword"REACTION".
In view of the large number of possible reactions, we regard the proposed split into "reaction" and "parameter given" as absolutely necessary, and we find the proposed format suitable and recommendable. The"parameter given" would require a dictionary close to but much shorter
than the classical Dictionary 14. Details are to be worked out. In
the "reaction" all particle codes from Diet.13 are permitted as projectile or as outgoing particles and any nuclide codes in the Z-S-A-M
form could be included as well. An extension to ions'is possible aswell, perhaps in the form Z-S-A-3+ or Z-S-A-l- (the use of the same
symbol for separator-hyphen and ion-charge-sign is cosmetically notnice but does not lead to ambiguities). Details are to be reviewed.
2.

Under "PART-DET" not only the particle type actually detected is coded,
but also the nuclide emitting this particle. Decay properties are
given in free text under "PART-DET". (The half-life entered here ishowever not computer-readable, and this seems to be a disadvantage.)

3.

The keyword "RESID-NUC" is cancelled. When the residual nucleus is
not stable, its definition may be ambiguous. Instead relevant nuclei
are coded under "REACTION" and "PART-DET".

Annex 8KPK Exfor
Memo 4C-3/121•4.

5.

3 March 1975.

The "STANDARD" reaction i'i given in the same format as the reaction
measured. To indicate tó' the computer program the revised format,
the keyword "STANDARD" was changed to "MONITOR". (Perhaps the term
MONITOR is used in Charged-Particles physics more generally thanin neutron physics?)
A number of dictionary additions were proposed for method information.
Mr. Kronenberger said that he was not sure whether this is reallyneeded in coded form. As long as this is not proven we are not ir.
favor of extending the method dictionaries.

Note: This Memo was f i r s t issued at the 1975 4C-Meeting. To make surethat i t gets the normal distribution i t i s issued again with only
minor corrections of misprints. Some more details on the workat Karlsruhe were sent to C.Dunford (KDS-Memo 290 of 28 May 1975)

Chargod-Partir.le EXFOR Work at Karlsruhe

Dear Mr. Schmidt,. . . . . . . . As enclosures I send you the extensions of the dictionaries
and copies of the f i r s t two entries to our charged—particle data f i l e .
In the comments which are contained in the dictionary extensions, ourwishes for changes, extensions and modifications are expressed.
Again, the most important changes compared to the EXFOR for neutron
data are the following:1.

We have introduced the information keywords REACTION and MONITOR.
They replace the keywords ISO-QUANT and STANDARD.

2.

The information keywords PAñT-DET and FACILITY were modified as
far' as th''iir information contenx is concerned. Thus, PART-DET
vi

• I1

i

\

contains//í2-S-A(-íí) of the product nuclicle as well as of the outgoing,particles if in the corresponding experiment they were both
detected. FACILITY contains the type of the facility as well an
its location.
The dictionaries 2» 10, 13, 16, 18, 21, 22, 23, 24 were extended.
We took the liberty to name us the center no. 6. On purpose, we
did not choose "5". Please compare the enclosures with what I havewritten
The entries 1 and 2 I shall send you as test casesin tb.e form of a trans-tape.
With'cordial grettings also from Dr. Muenzel,

F. Kronenberger

MEMO 4C-1/60

Date:

June 9, 1975

From:

C. L. Dunford

Subject:

Four-Centres Repsonse to 4C-3/121 concerning the KFK Non-neutron
EXFOR.

The following discussion represents a consensus of opinion expressed at
the 11th Four-Centres Meeting during the discussion of the KFK proposal for a
aon-neutron EXFOR. Most attention will be paid to the ISO-QUANT keyword andits structure. However, other changes to the current EXFOR will be discussed.
It was strongly felt that no changes to the present EXFOR will be madeuntil new proposals are tested and justified. Therefore any non-neutron datacoded in EXFOR will be maintained as a separate library. However, it was recognized that a single system is desirable in the long term. Therefore it was
felt that it may be necessary to correct old EXFOR entries for any formatchanges.
1.

ISO-QUANT - The KFK proposal is not compatible with the current EXFOR.
It was felt that the philosophy of the KFK proposal was an improvement on
the present EXFOR system but required some modification.

a), The keyword "REACTION" should be used to replace "ISO-QUANT".
QUANT would disappear after conversion of old EXFOR entries.

ISO-fa). Structure of the coded information(FLD1, (FLD2, FLD3), FLD4, FLD5, FLD6).
FLD1 - Target nucleus coded as presently in EXFORFLD2 - Projectile coded using Dictionary 13. This dictionary must
be expanded to include heavier than incident'alpha particles.
(eq. LI7, C12, U238 etc.) Note that the atomic number is notincluded as in FLD1.
FLD3 - Reaction using the reaction definition parts of Dictionary 10.
All codes like EL,INL,T0T,ABS, ING etc would be used in thisfield as single, 3 character codes. Reactions which are characterized by the emission of one or more particles would use theparticle codes of Dictionary 13 separated by a delimiter (aslash is recommended). An integer preceeding a particle code
would represent multiple emission of that particle.

N4N
PP2N

(N, N/P)(N, 4N)(P, P/2N)

106
Annex 9KPK Exfor reply
FLD4 - Parameters and Functions combines parts of Dictionary 10
with Dictionary 11. Codes included in this field would be
ALF, NU, WID etc., from Dictionary 10 and adding CR0, TTY
etc.
FLD5 - Modifierssame as present EXFOR using Dictionary 12.

FLD6 - Particle

same as present EXFOR using Dictionary 13.

c) Our modifications to the KFK proposal are such as to permit heavy
ion reactions to be coded, permit multiparticle emission to be handled in amachine readable way and eliminate redundancy (for example the final nucleus
is not necessary to code). If required, the final nucleus should be given
with the keyword RESID-NUC.
EXAMPLES

(39-Y-89, (P,P/5N), CR0)KFK
PROPOSED(8-0-16, (N,EL), WID/RED)PROPOSED

PART-DET - KFK proposal is reasonable but we propose that the particle detected appear first and the nucleus follow so that the change from current
EXFOR is a simple addition instead of an insertion. It also seems reasonable that the quantity described in the keyword be the first piece of coded
information.

3.

FACILITY Under present EXFOR rules of coding, only in exceptional circumstances would the lab code for a facility be different for the lab code of
the institute. We could accept the KFK proposal to add a lab code fieldunder FACILITY, but „it should be used only if different from INSTITUTE.
Multiple facilities if appropriate must be coded as FACILITY (DYNAM, 1USAANL)(SYNCYC, 1CANMCG)

4.

STANDARD - Only one keyword either STANDARD or MONITOR should be finallyadopted. MONITOR is almost unused in neutron physics except in the phrase"flux monitor". I am not familiar with the terminology on these words inother branches of nuclear physics. Eventual use of both will be confusing.
We suggest that the keyword STANDARD* be used.

107
Annex 9KFK Exfor reply
5.

Area code - We will have to do something about the assijjnment of area
codes. With the eventual demise of the SCISRS translation series 5-8 will
be available. But what happens if the number of centers bticomes greaterthan 9?

6.

MISC - The use of multiple MISC columns to code various sums and ratiosof cross sections is not a good practice (see 60001003) and is illegal
in EXFOR. Each should be coded properly in a separate subentry or in asingle subentry using the "multiple ISO-QUANT" concept.

Task Force on Generalized
ENDF Format
C. L. Dunford
Results of Task Force Meeting
July 15-16 at ORNL

I am enclosing a discussion of the organization of a generalized evaluatednuclear data file. In particular, I will explore the definition of the logicalunits of such a data file. At the same time, I will attempt to draw someconclusions about the ENDF format as we had agreed to do at the meeting. The
final section of the enclosure will consist of some general statements about
the structure of these logical units. However, I will defer in detail to
Bob MacFarlane to prepare a discussion on this point. One general comment on
the future ENDF. If we are proceeding on the assumption that there exists
only one file, from which all special purpose evaluated data files will bederived, then the concept of the General Purpose file consisting of only
complete evaluations must disappear. The evaluator would be responsible forseeing that any new data entered is compatible with what currently exists
in the file.

Background on File Organization.

First, I would like to introduce the concept of a "key" which isfundamental to all data base management systems. A key is a numeric oralphanumeric descriptor which is used to define the contents of a logicalunit of information in the data base. A key or a combination of keys canbe used to define and retrieve sections from the data base. Therefore a setof keys must be defined such that they are unique and comprehensive. In thefollowing sections, I will attempt to de'fine a set o,f keys for nuclear data.

II.

Interpretation of Present Formats
The ENDF/B system can be interpreted as having three keys.
1.

MAT - target nucleus

2.

MF- property

3.

MT- reaction or other quantity

The ENDL format which was proposed as a successor to ENDF/B has thefollowing keys.
1.

ZA- target nucleus

2.

Y.

- incident particle

3.

Y- outgoing particle whose property is being described4.

C- reaction or structure designator5.

I- reaction property

6.

S- reaction modifier

7.

X_ , - up to four parameters defined by S
i—1,4
It is clear from this comparison that ENDF/B is much to restrictive.
The only way to generalize ENDF without extreme difficulties is to expand
the meaning of the three keys as.I proposed in my December 1974 Memo. One
quickly runs out of integers if MAT stands for projectile, target, andtarget state all at one time.
The ENDL system is far more comprehensive using six independent and
one dependent key (X. .. . ) . The two major deficiencies of the ENDL system
1=1,H
is the lack of a key for the state of the target and the use of a dependent

III.

Keys Proposed for a Generalized ENDF/B

A large part of the Task Force Meeting was devoted to describing thetypes of nuclear data to be considered. In general the bounds on the typeof information to be stored are:

131
Annex 13
ENDP
1.

No complex projectile, that is one for which the state of
the projectile must be given.

2.

Only information about the initial and final properties of
the nuclear system are important.

Within these restrictions, the following nine keys seem to be adequate.
1.

Projectile

2.

Target nucleus

3.

Target nucleus excitation energy

4.

Process identifier

5.

Process modifier

6.

Residual nucleus

7.

Residual nucleus excitation energy

8.

Product whose property is tabulated

9.

Property being tabulated

Projectile - neutron, proton, electron, etc. or none.
T a ^ e t nucleus - isotope, element, compound or alloy (may be parent
isotope in radioactive decay data)
Process identifier - (?, Total), (?, 2p), (?, X n ) , (ß+ decay),(a decay) and such special information like resonance parameters,
S((X, ß) and level structure.
Process modifier - isomer production, cross section ratio etc.
(much restricted compared to ENDL's S-parameter)
Product whose property is tabulated - generally a light particle such
as y, neutron, ß~ etc. but in the case of recoil spectra, it could
be a heavy nucleus.
Property beinfe tabulated*- cross section, secondary distributions,energy deposits, etc.
The meaning of the remaining three keys is obvious. It is clear that theresidual nucleus is redundant if projectile, target and reaction are known(or if parent and decay mode are known). However, it is possible for aprocess to be complex or indeterminate in which case the residual nucleus
must be given. (See fourth example below.)IV.

Serious difficulties can arise when a single key is used to serve
several functions which is the case in general in ENDF/B. That fact is
one of the two major difficulties in generalizing ENDF/B.
V.

Construction of keys

It is not clear to me in most cases whether the keys should be simple
alphanumeric codes or whether integer equivalents are preferable. For the
keys giving excitation energies, clearly a floating point number is required.
The process modifier and property keys should be integer equivalents.
We spent considerable time discussing the construction of the process
identifier. Although this discussion was very useful as an aid to exploring
the range of data types, I have reached the conclusion that our final
product was too restrictive. We will have to adopt a set of numericalequivalents. As part of the organization of this table a way must be foundto tell whether a given particle is one of the products of a reaction.
ENDF/B does this in a primitive way (neutrons or no neutrons). ENDL issomewhat better, but still breaks down when looking for a given charged
particle. Something like Table 3 of the ENDL documentation will need tobe constructed, perhaps using more digits to describe a multi-particle
final system. For example the reaction descriptor for
Neutron. Deuteron*l Alpha 1(y, n d 2 a y) = 1366«-Alpha 2
In the ENDL system the particle order in the reaction designator isimportant. For example, (y,npy) is different from (y,pny). If it is notpossible to determine anything but (y,npy) + (y,pnV) we must be able toenter such a sum cross section easily. This can be done by using a "Processmodifier" key which says "particle order not known".

Structure of a Section

The structure of a section will be dependent on the function being
described and its parameterization. I think much of the ENDF/B structure
as extended in my December Memo could be carried over to the generalized
file. Perhaps multiplicities should not be included in the section withsecondary distribution functions but have their own section. (In manycases the multiplicity is energy independent and uniquely defined for areaction).
Each section may have multiple subsections when more than one functional
representation is required for the property description. There should beshortened form for indicating default conditions such as isotropic angular
distributions or equal probability energy distributions.

134
Annex 13ENDP
It is important that the format recognize the unity between discrete arid
continuum representations. In particular, all secondary distributions should
be given in terms of a sum over discrete (delta functions) values and acontinuum.
The TABl record should be generalized so that the unit of information
is variable length. For example the units may be1.

Finally the structure of a resonance parameter record should be suchthat the parameters and any smooth background cross section should be in
the same section.
