The 9th workshop on Asian Nuclear Reaction Database Development (AASPP2018)
was held in Gyeongju, Republic of Korea, from November 12 to 15, 2018. The 30
participants of the workshop from 8 countries gave presentations of their EXFOR
compilation activity and own researches on nuclear data. A brief summary of theworkshop is reported.

1Introduction

The 9th workshop on Asian Nuclear Reaction Database Development was organized by NuclearData Center, Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute in cooperation with the International AtomicEnergy Agency (IAEA). It was held in Gyeongju, Republic of Korea from November 12 to 15, 2018.
The 30 participants in total came from 13 cooperating institutes in 8 countries, Austria, China,India, Japan, Kazakhstan, Korea, Mongolia and Vitenam (Fig. 1).
The purposes of this workshop are to promote the EXFOR compilation activity in each Asian
nuclear data centre and theoretical and experimental nuclear data researches among the participants. The main topics of the workshop were:• Nuclear Data Activities in Asian Nuclear Data Centers• Progress in EXFOR Compilation• Development of the Asian Nuclear Reaction Database Network• Nuclear Data Measurement and Experimental Facilities• Nuclear Data Evaluation and Validation
In the workshop, 24 presentations related to the topics were given by the participants. Questions,comments and discussion among the participants were followed. In this report, a brief summary ofthe workshop is reported.

2Sessions and presentations

There were seven sessions in the workshop as listed in Table 1. The first session was devoted tothe EXFOR compilation and the others were for the presentations of the participants.
The first session was called ”EXFOR session” and held for one and a half days. In the session,
we compiled several papers and discussed related technical problems.
From the afternoon of the second day, the sessions I-VI for presentations of the participants
were started, following the welcome address of Dr. Young-Ouk Lee (KAERI). In the session I,
there were five presentations mainly to introduce compilation activities in IAEA and Asian centresof China, India, Japan and Korea. In the session II, five presentations on nuclear data researchesof participants were given. The session III in the third day had three presentations on theoreticaland experimental researches on nuclear data. The session IV was devoted to the presentationsof Korean participants. In the session V, the experimental activities in Japan and Korea werereported. The last session had four presentations related to their theoretical activities and softwaredevelopment. In the last day, there was a facility tour in a proton linear accelerator (KOMAC)
and an excursion in Gyeong-ju city.
The more details of the workshop are summarized in the proceedings [1].

3Summary

The 9th workshop on Asian Nuclear Reaction Database Development was held in Gyeongju, Republic of Korea, on November 12-15, 2018. The total number of the participants was 30 from 7 Asianand 1 European countries. The participants gave presentations on compilation and nuclear data
research activities. The workshop was satisfactory to the participants and successfully finished.
The next workshop in 2019 was proposed to be held in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
