Scientific paper

Research opportunities offered by spallation neutron sources for applied nuclear physics are reviewed, in particular having in mind the SNS machine under construction at Oak Ridge. Discussion is focused on nuclear data needs for 4 groups of applications. These include nuclear power (energy production, transmutation), defense (criticality safety, radiochemical diagnostics), and other applications (material analysis, medical, standards and resonance parameters), as well as needs for nuclear reaction model calculations (level densities, photon and neutron strength functions). It is concluded that the new SNS machine represents an important tool to meet future nuclear data needs in the U.S.
