In 2006 Alan Nichols initiated an action to organize European funding

Actions: 1. Bottom – up approach (contacting parties interested to

contribute to NSDD); 2. Contacts with different authorities within Europe (EC, Lab

directors, NuPECC, etc.)

In 2006 and 2007 an attempt was done to identify the European priorities in data evaluation; different organizations were contacted (CSNSM, U.Surrey, IFIN, U.Jyvaskyla, IFJ – Krakow, ATOMKI, CIEMAT – Madrid, etc.)

Funding opportunities with in FP7

• research infrastructure I3 action within program Capacities • three types of activities: TA, JRA, NA• suggested activities need to strengthen the European RI

• program EUROATOM

• other options • ERANET action • e-libraries

A network of Nuclear data evaluators was NOT included in the EC I3 ENSAR project which is funded through the FP7 Capacities programme in the period 2010 – 2014.

A network of Nuclear data evaluators does NOT fit the priorities of the FP7 EUROATM programme.

Following the advise of NuPECC the effort was directed towards the FP7 ERA-NET mechanism within the Capacities programme (the NuPNET project, which is funded in the period 2008 – 2011).

NuPNET is an ERA-NET in the field of Nuclear PhysicsNuPNET thus stands for Nuclear Physics Network.

Provide Europe with a more coherent fundingof Nuclear Physics infrastructures and equipments.

Wed, Sep 8, 2010 at 1:34 PM Subject: NuPNET short list of topics for a pilot action

Dear all,

Based on the preferences received from most of the NuPNET partners, the coordination committee has recently elaborated a tentative short list of topics for the NuPNET pilot call. Although this list is nothing more than a suggestion to be further discuss, and the  number of topics could still be reduced, the ones we have in the list at the moment are the following:

1. R&D on new detectors in particular for nuclear structure and reactions- gamma and neutron detection technologies based on new scintillationmaterials and new photo-sensors (APDs, SiPMs, ..)- silicon and micropatterned gas tracking detectors (GEM, Micromegas):low and high energy applications- large-area diamond detectors for beam monitoring or timing

2. R&D on future ISOL facilities (EURISOL): high-power acceleratorcomponents, target and ion sources

3. Targeted action on nuclear structure and reactions theory4. Support to the European Nuclear Structure Data Base (ENSDD)

Best regardsJose

OUTLOOKor

WHAT TO DO ?

1. Keep the community together (organize a ENSDD meeting in 2011).

2. Extend MoU beyond 2012.3. Keep evaluators involved (find support for their activities).

HOW ?4. Apply for a next call within NuPNET (if any in 2012). 5. Raise funds within the National Funding Agencies.

HOW ?6. Prepare for FP8 (which will be organized “ala NuPNET

fasion”.
