Compilation status and research topics in Hokkaido University nuclear reaction data centre

The Hokkaido University Nuclear Reaction Data Centre (JCPRG) is a member of the International Network of Nuclear Reaction Data Centres (NRDC) under the auspices of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). JCPRG contributes about 10 percent of the data on charged-particle nuclear reactions in the EXFOR. In addition to the worldwide collaboration of compilation, Asian collaboration on compilation and evaluation was also promoted. As a result of this promotion, a research on the ⁹Be+n reaction was launched between Hokkaido University and Al-Farabi Kazakh National University. Beryllium is one of essential materials as a target window and a reflector for a spallation neutron source. The theoretical study and evaluation of the ⁹Be+n reaction are indispensable for nuclear engineering. We report current status of our activity and collaboration on compilation and evaluation of nuclear reaction data. (author)
