Summary of the consultants' meeting on charged particle nuclear data (CPND) compilation, Vienna, 8-12 September 1975

The main results of the meeting were: An agreement was reached for an international cooperation effort, coordinated by the Agency's Nuclear Data Section, on the compilation of charged particle induced nuclear reaction data, which gain increasing importance in various industrial and scientific applications in both developed and developing countries. The primary participating data centres are at Karlsruhe, Fed. Rep. of Germany, and at the Kurchatov Institute, Moscow, USSR, and other centres in Japan, U.K., U.S.A. and at NEA will contribute with data compilation or distribution services. The cooperation is based on the experiences gained from the international exchange of neutron nuclear data, and the same or similar computerized exchange systems (EXFOR) will be used. The role of the Agency's Nuclear Data Section had to be kept, due to manpower restrictions, at the minimum required level of coordinating and data dissemination functions
