Nuclear Structure and Decay Data for A=76 Isobars

The experimental nuclear spectroscopic data for known nuclides of mass number 76 (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge, As, Se, Br, Kr, Rb, Sr, Y) have been evaluated and presented together with Adopted properties for levels and γ rays. With the exception of structure data for 76 Ga nucleus, significant new data have been incorporated for all the other nuclides of A=76 since the previous 1995 update in ENSDF database and NDS publication 1995Si03. No data are yet available for excited states in 76 Fe, 76 Cu and 76 Y. Decay scheme characteristics for the decay of 76 Co, 76 Ni, and 76 Y are unknown while those for decays of 76 Cu and 76 Sr seem incomplete. For 76 Ni, very little structure data are available, and for 76 Ga and 76 As, only low-spin ( or so) information is available. Furthermore, this work supersedes the data presented in the previous (1995Si03) NDS evaluation of A=76.

Nuclear Structure and Decay Data for A=165 Isobars

Experimental nuclear spectroscopic data are compiled and evaluated for 18 known nuclides of mass 165 (Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt). Detailed information is presented for each reaction and decay experiment. Combining all the available data, recommended values are provided for energies, spins and parities, and half-lives of levels, with energies, branching ratios and multipolarities of γ radiations, and characteristics of β and α radiations in radioactive decays. 165 Dy, 165 Ho, 165 Er, 165 Tm, 165 Yb, 165 Lu and 165 Hf are among the most extensively studied nuclides via decay and high-spin gamma-ray spectroscopy measurements, followed by limited data for 165 Tb, 165 Ta, 165 W, 165 Re, and 165 Os. No excited states have yet been identified in 165 Sm, 165 Gd, and 165 Pt, while for 165 Eu and 165 Ir, information is available for only the g.s. and an isomer, but with no γ rays. As a result, this work supersedes earlier evaluation of A=165 nuclides by 2006Ja09.
