First author should submit (as approved by PC): 1) the paper (to the journal) 2) the yield and other data to the IAEA

23 n_TOF data-analysis workshop CERN, Geneva, 25-27 February 2015 Roberto Capote, IAEA Nuclear Data Section r.capotenoy@iaea.org www-nds.iaea.org TAKE HOME MESSAGE Job is not finished till ALL data are submitted Recommendation: submit the yield to the IAEA with the paper to the journal Both for capture and fission experiments: Capture/Fission yields (= input for SAMMY) Cross sections (preferably what is measured = ratio to STD) Only exception: (n,f) or (ng) data above the Resonance Range (in this case only cross sections are needed) n_TOF impact on (n,g) evaluations low (02/15) Only 232 Th(n,g) capture yield used in IAEA (other) evaluation so far (adopted by..) !!! Situation is improving (2 new sets) but huge backlog needs to be sorted out n_TOF provided excellent data on U5f/U8f to the IAEA STD group Ratios of other STD cross sections needed – e.g. Au(n,g)/U8(n,g),Li6t/10Ba
