Fission reactors continue to play a significant role in the energy, medical, military, analytical, and research activities around the world. To use them effectively, it is necessary to monitor their neutron levels and distributions, their radioactive products, and the reaction rates in their fuel, control, moderator, coolant, structural, and target materials. Nuclear data associated with these materials as well as the materials used as monitors are vitally important in providing data to the operations, experiments, analyses, productions, and surveillance sectors of nuclear technology, science, and engineering. This paper reviews the isotopic abundance, cross-section, decay, and yield data of selected materials and reaction products being applied by the author's laboratory in measurements related to fission reactors.
