The Joint Evaluated File (JEF) is a collaborative project between the countries participating in the NEA Data Bank, e.g., Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, and United Kingdom. Mexico and South Korea are about to join the NEA Data Bank. The JEF project is managed by a Scientific Coordination Group (SCG) that meets at least annually. The technical achievements are reviewed at working group meetings, which are normally held twice a year. The following three major working groups exist: (1) Data Evaluation; (2) Benchmark Testing; (3) Radioactive Decay and Fission Yield Data. A related group, called the NJOY User Group, has also been formed to discuss problems and possible solutions to data processing questions, concerning the NJOY code systems, which is widely used in the preparation of group data sets for the validation of JEF. The NJOY User Group normally meets in conjunction with the JEF Working Group meetings.
