Iterative Bayesian Monte Carlo for nuclear data evaluation

The use of an iterative Bayesian Monte Carlo (iBMC) method for nuclear data evaluation within a TALYS Evaluated Nuclear Data Library (TENDL) framework to find the optimal model and parameter sets that reproduces selected experimental data is explored.

G-HyND: a hybrid nuclear data estimator with Gaussian processes

It was demonstrated that an experimental dataset and a physics model-based analytical dataset perform a complementary role in nuclear data generation, and that the generated nuclear data from the hybrid training dataset are more reasonable than only those from the experimental dataset.
