Present status of data and code libraries
The Radiation Safety Information Computational Center (RSICC) and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Nuclear Energy Agency Data Bank (NEADB) work together to acquire sets of computer codes, nuclear data and integral experiments relevant to shielding and dosimetry applications for fission, fusion and accelerator applications. To keep up with advances in computing...

The European Activation System (EASY) includes as the source of nuclear data the European Activation File (EAF) and as its engine the FISPACT activation-transmutation code. The latest version of the EAF, EAF-2010, contains cross section data for gamma-, deuteron- and proton-induced reactions in addition to the traditional neutron-induced data. The main reason for the addition of these data to...

Geant4 is a toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter. It is widely used in many domains including high energy physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, space science and medical physics.
Members of the Geant4 hadronic working group have been involved in shielding calculations during the past four years, and have participated in the "Inter-comparison of Medium-Energy...

The two codes INCL4.2 (Intra-nuclear cascade) and Abla (deexcitation), combined to describe spallation reactions, have been improved in the last years. The main points were the light charged particle emission and IMF (Intermediate Mass Fragment) emission. The new versions, INCL4.5 and Abla07, give now good results in particular on tritium and helium production. An international benchmark,...

International fusion materials irradiation facility (IFMIF) is one of the three projects of the fusion broader approach between Japan and the European Union, planned to be performed in parallel of ITER project. The objective of IFMIF is to study the behaviour under irradiation of materials and components in conditions close to a nuclear fusion reactor. Engineering validation and engineering...
