Agenda Structure Group Discussions 2013
NSDD/ENSDF Long Range Planning:(Monday Afternoon) • Priorities and characterization of user base • What is the relation between ENSDF and other databases? (DDEP, EGAF, AME/MIRD, RIPL/NuDat/ENDF) • How do undergraduates contribute? - Kelley • How do postdocs contribute? - Kelley • Status, outlook and commitment • Necessary levels for sustained activity • Five year outlook for present manpower • What is a feasible hiring strategy? • What are the plans for Nuclear Data Sheets?
Priorities and characterization of user base • What is the relation between ENSDF and other databases? (DDEP, EGAF, AME/MIRD, RIPL/NuDat/ENDF)
Priorities and characterization of user base • What is the relation between ENSDF and other databases? (DDEP, EGAF, AME/MIRD, RIPL/NuDat/ENDF) • Is ENSDF autonomous? • how? • how not?
Priorities and characterization of user base • What is the relation between ENSDF and other databases? (DDEP, EGAF, AME/MIRD, RIPL/NuDat/ENDF) • Is ENSDF autonomous? • how? • how not? • Are other DB’s autonomous? • How • How not?
How do undergraduates contribute? - Kelley Who’s evaluating your nuclear data? What is the Sr FTE per undergraduate FTE? How long before undergraduates payoff?
How do postdocs contribute? - Kelley • Are post-docs interested in evaluation positions? • Are post-docs meeting the needs of ENSDF? USNDP? • Are staff positions a better investment? • Are post-docs interested in long-term evaluation positions?
Status, outlook and commitment • Necessary levels for sustained activity • Five year outlook for present manpower
What is a feasible hiring strategy? • Are 2-3 year postdoc positions the solution to fill the void of our retiring evaluators? • Are BNL contracts the solution to fill the void of our retiring evaluators?
