Ganesan, present address: Neutron Physics Division, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Trombay, Bombay-400 085 email:ganesan@magnum.barct1.ernet.in According to the recommendations of the IAEA Consultants Meeting on "Preparation of fusion benchmarks in electronic format for nuclear data validation studies", convened by the International Atomic Energy Agency and held during December 13-16, 1993 at the IAEA Headquarters, Vienna ( Ref. 1), the IAEA Nuclear Data Section is compiling the fusion benchmark descriptions and data provided by the international community of benchmark specialists. The compiled information, which is being used [See ref. 2] to integrally validate the FENDL working nuclear data libraries in processed form which have been derived within the scope of the FENDL project of the Agency for neutron and photon transport, is available via the NDS online system and is contained in the directory UD6:[FENDL.VALIDATION.BENCHMARKS].
