Moderator
In view of the decline in experimental facilities and experiments in reactor physics, our plenary session is more important than ever. It aims to present the latest advances and emphasise the crucial need for experimental data for the verification, validation and uncertainty quantification(VVUQ) of simulation tools. The aim of the plenary sessions is to present the state of the art in experimental physics at various facilities around the world and to discuss the current and future needs for experiments and experimental facilities for reactor physics.
