A review is given of nuclear data problems encountered in activity measurements for reactor neutron dosimetry, as observed in the Euratom Working Group on Reactor Dosimetry and its subgroup on nuclear data. The situation with respect to decay data, cross sections, and fission yields is discussed. Special attention is paid to the treatment of inconsistent data sets and to the role of covariances.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
