Forthcoming approaches in nuclear data evaluation

The field of nuclear data processing belongs to fundamentally developed areas of nuclear physics and engineering as a ground state of universal knowledge. Experiments and measurements served the role of prime examination methods for centuries, developing state of art theories and explaining concealed phenomena. Despite the extensive development of nuclear data libraries in last decades, new methods are still being developed and point out unexpected discrepancies in values e.g. cross sections, nuclear parameters and others. This paper concerns about a nuclear model computational package TALYS with emphasize on long-lived fission products - LLFP's microscopic capture cross section, as a join to previous experimental measurements on related isotope ¹²⁸Te [3]. One option of reducing nuclear waste activity is via transmutation technologies. These comprise neutron capture reaction and transmutation of long living radioactive materials into less harm respectively stable isotopes. (authors)
