This workshop will provide participants with an opportunity for a hands-on training course covering NEA software. Participants will learn how to use the efficiency use the Database for ICSBEP (DICE), the how the Nuclear Data Sensitivity Tool (NDaST) can be used to estimate how integral benchmark predictions will respond to changes in nuclear data.
Suggested hardware: Laptop that is able to launch java webstart applications:
DICE: https://www.oecd-nea.org/dice/webstart/dice.jnlp
NDaST: https://www.oecd-nea.org/ndast/webstart/NDaST.jnlp
Restrictions: None
Duration: ~2.5 hours.
Note: This workshop would be very similar to the one given at ICNC2023, if you attended it, you may want to sign up for another workshop.
