Description
First-principles calculations have made great strides during the past years in bridging the gap from fundamental nuclear interactions derived from chiral effective field theory to the description of nuclear structure and dynamics. Due to their predictive capability, large-scale calculations can form the basis on which nuclear data evaluations can be performed. In this talk, I will outline a new approach that combines such first-principles calculations with Gaussian process emulators and nuclear data in order to arrive at an evaluated cross section for the 6Li(n,t)4He reaction with quantified uncertainties.
