The program brings together several related meetings: USNDP discussions and FY27 work planning; a Nuclear Data for Fusion minisymposium on nuclear-data needs for fusion reactors; an invitation-only Nuclear Criticality Safety Program NDAG meeting; CSEWG reviews of experiments and nuclear-data evaluations, approval of new evaluations and format changes, methodology discussions, and coordination of future work; and a WANDA 2027 planning meeting. Topics include tritium-breeding predictions and 7Li data processing, fusion data prioritization and uncertainty analysis, neutron scattering on fusion materials, covariance evaluation and validation, criticality benchmarks, ENDF library testing, neutron standards, reaction and fission-product-yield evaluations, thermal-scattering data for moderator and fuel materials, and nuclear-data processing codes. The conference is not open to the public; NDAG is by invitation.
