Abstract: As a bridge between nuclear basic research and nuclear engineering and nuclear technology application, nuclear data is an important foundation for nuclear energy development and nuclear technology application. After more than 60 years of development, China has developed a “small-scale, high-level, and characteristic” nuclear data research system, including experimental measurement, evaluation, caculation, nuclear data library development and validation. It has achieved a lot of high-level research results, and completed the multi-stage nuclear data research tasks, providing high-quality nuclear data for the development of national science and technology, nuclear energy development and nuclear technology application. This paper briefly introduces the progress of China nuclear data research, and gives the future development prospect of China nuclear data.
