Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 43

The experimental data are evaluated for known nuclides of mass number A = 43 (Al,Si,P,S,Cl,Ar,K,Ca,Sc,Ti,V,Cr). Detailed evaluated level properties and related information are presented, including adopted values of level and γ–ray energies, decay data (energies, intensities and placement of radiations), and other spectroscopic data. Here, this work supersedes earlier full evaluations of A = 43 published by 2001Ca24 and 1990En08 (also 1978En04, and 1998En04 update).

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=218

The evaluated data are presented for 11 known A=218 nulcides (Pb, Bi, Po, At, Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac, Th, Pa and U). For {sup 218}Pb, {sup 218}Bi, {sup 218}At and {sup 218}Pa, data are available only for the ground states. For {sup 218}U, only the g.s. and a high-spin isomer are known, with no data on γ-ray transitions available. For {sup 218}Po, ten excited states are known from {sup 218}Bi decay, with no knowledge on the multipolarities of gamma-ray transitions. For {sup 218}Th, five excited states in the g.s. band are known from an in-beam γ-ray study. Data on level half-lives, multipolarities and mixing ratios of gamma transitions is generally lacking for A=218 nuclei. The static magnetic dipole moment has been measured for only an isomer in {sup 218}Fr. With the exception of a new nuclide, {sup 218}Pb, and measurements of half-lives of ground states of a few nuclides of A=218 and A=222, no substantial structure information has become available since the previous evaluation in 2006. Q values are adopted from 2017Wa10 (AME-2016). The present evaluation supersedes the previous A=218 ENSDF evaluations, 2006Ja03, 1995El08, 1987El12 and 1977To13. This evaluation was carried out as part of a joint IAEA-ICTP workshop for Nuclear Structure and Decay Data, organized and hosted by the IAEA, Vienna, and ICTP, Trieste, October 15–26, 2018.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 42

The experimental data are evaluated for known nuclides of mass number A = 42 (Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr). Detailed evaluated level properties and related information are presented, including adopted values of level and γ–ray energies, decay data (energies, intensities and placement of radiations), and other spectroscopic data. This work supersedes earlier full evaluations of A = 42 published by B. Singh, J.A. Cameron – Nucl.Data Sheets 92, 1 (2001) and P.M. Endt – Nucl. Phys. A521, 1 (1990); Errata and Addenda Nucl. Phys. A529, 763 (1991); Errata Nucl. Phys. A564, 609 (1993) (also P.M. Endt – Nucl. Phys. A633, 1 (1998) update). No excited states are known in {sup 42}Al, {sup 42}P, {sup 42}V and {sup 42}Cr, and structure information for {sup 42}Si and {sup 42}S is quite limited. There are no decay schemes available for the decay of {sup 42}Al, {sup 42}Si, {sup 42}P, {sup 42}V and {sup 42}Cr, while the decay schemes of {sup 42}Cl and {sup 42}Ti are incomplete in view of scarcity of data, and large gap between their Q–values and the highest energy levels populated in corresponding daughter nuclei. Structures of {sup 42}Ca, {sup 42}K, {sup 42}Sc and {sup 42}Ar nuclides remain the most extensively studied via many different nuclear reactions and decays.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 227

The evaluated spectroscopic data are presented for ten known nuclides of mass 227 (Po, At, Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac, Th, Pa, U, Np). For {sup 227}Po, {sup 227}At, {sup 227}Rn, {sup 227}Pa, {sup 227}U and {sup 227}Np nuclei, only the ground-state information is available. Their decay characteristics are mostly unknown. Levels in {sup 227}Fr are known only from the decay of {sup 227}Rn to {sup 227}Fr. This decay scheme at present cannot be normalized to deduce γ intensities per 100 decays due to lack of knowledge about multipolarities of many low-energy transitions. The levels in {sup 227}Ra, {sup 227}Ac and {sup 227}Th are known from several decays and reactions, including particle-transfer data for {sup 227}Ra and {sup 227}Ac. The decay scheme of {sup 227}Ra to {sup 227}Ac was last studied in 1971 using small Ge detectors. Improved γ-ray intensity data need to be obtained with a better γ-detection system. The datasets for {sup 227}Ac have undergone extensive revisions, including detailed data for 231Pa α decay from 1986BaYK report, and single-proton transfer data from 1986MaYU thesis. High-spin (J>13/2 or so) structures are known only for 227Th. Level lifetime data are quite scarce for all the nuclides in this mass chain, thus limiting the knowledge of reduced transition probabilities. Band structures for {sup 227}Fr, {sup 227}Ra, {sup 227}Ac and {sup 227}Th are known in detail, together with evidence of weak octupole deformation and consequent parity-doublet structures. This evaluation was carried out as part of a joint IAEA-ICTP workshop for Nuclear Structure and Decay Data, organized and hosted by the IAEA, Vienna and ICTP, Trieste, March 24–28, 2014. The evaluation work was coordinated by B. Singh (McMaster). This work supersedes previous A=227 evaluation (2001Br31) published by E. Browne which covered literature before May 2001.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 70

Spectroscopic data for all nuclei with mass number A = 70 have been evaluated, and the corresponding level schemes from radioactive decay and reaction studies are presented. Since the previous evaluation, the half-life of {sup 70}Mn has been measured and excited states in {sup 70}Fe observed for the first time. Excited states in {sup 70}Ni have been more extensively studied while Coulomb excitation and collinear laser spectroscopy measurements in {sup 70}Cu have allowed for firm Jπ assignments. Despite new measurements, there remain some discrepancies in half-lives of low lying states in {sup 70}Zn. New measurements have extended the knowledge of high-spin band structures in {sup 70}Ge and {sup 70}As. This evaluation supersedes the prior A = 70 evaluation of 2004Tu09.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=258☆

Spectroscopic data for A=258 nuclides have been updated and re-evaluated, superseding the data presented in the previous evaluation 2001Ak11 published by Y.A. Akovali. The excited state data for A=258 nuclei are largely unknown. With the exception of three low-energy gamma rays in {sup 258}Db from {sup 262}Bh α decay, no other gamma-ray data are available for A=258 nuclei.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=164

Experimental nuclear structure data for the known A=164 isobaric nuclides (Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir) have been evaluated, and presented together with Adopted properties of level energies, and associated γ rays. The decay data for these nuclides have also been evaluated, providing Adopted values of γ and β radiations, and log ft values. No excited states are known in 164 Eu, 164 Tb, and 164 Ir. Information for 164 Gd, 164 Re and 164 Os is limited due to insufficient experimental data. For radioactive nuclides, decay schemes of 164 Sm, 164 Gd and 164 Re are not known, and those of 164 W, 164 Tb, 164 Lu, 164 Hf, 164 Ta and 164 W are incomplete. The decay schemes of 164 Ho and the two activities of 164 Tm seem fairly complete. The decay scheme of 164 Yb presents a major problem that the Q(ε) value of 887 keV 29 recommended in 2017Wa10 is in disagreement with the population of levels at 928, 952 and 1060 keV in the daughter nucleus. This decay scheme, which so far has been mainly reported in a secondary reference (1982AdZZ) needs further investigation. Also the masses of 164 Yb and 164 Tm need either new measurements or a re-evaluation to resolve discrepancy of about 220 keV in the Q value of 164 Yb decay to 164 Tm. The reactions and decays for which no new experimental information has become available since the 2001 update have undergone revisions to incorporate conversion coefficients from BrIcc code, and evaluated Q values from 2017Wa10, but the essential content of such datasets may have remained the same as in previous evaluations. Finally, in this respect the present work greatly benefited from all the previous NDS evaluations (2001Si27,1992Sh07, 1986Sh03,1974Bu30), but at the same time data presented herein supersede all the previous published evaluations.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=217

The evaluated spectroscopic data are presented in this paper for 12 known nuclides with A=217 (Tl, Pb, Bi, Po, At, Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac, Th, Pa, U). For 217Tl, 217Pb, 217Pa, and 217U nuclei, only information on the ground state is available. Levels in 217 Bi are known only from isomer decay following fragmentation reaction and those in 217 At and 217 Rn only from the α decay of 221 Fr and 221 Ra, respectively. High spin levels in 217 Ra are mainly from 1987SuZY and 2011MuZZ which are a lab report and thesis, respectively. Due to differences between these studies, further experimental study is needed to firmly establish the level scheme. This evaluation was carried out as part of a joint IAEA-ICTP workshop for Nuclear Structure and Decay Data, organized and hosted by the IAEA, Vienna and ICTP, Trieste, Aug 22 to Sept 2 2016. The evaluation work was coordinated by E.A. McCutchan (BNL). Finally, this work supersedes the previous previous A=217 evaluation (2003Ak06) by Y.A. Akovali.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=136☆

Spectroscopic data for all nuclei with mass number A=136 have been evaluated and the corresponding level schemes from radioactive decay and reaction studies are presented. No excited states are known in {sup 136}In, {sup 136}Eu, or {sup 136}Gd and {sup 136}Tb remains unidentified. Discrepancies between experiments on isomeric decays in {sup 136}Sb and {sup 136}La suggest the need for futher experimental investigation. The decay of {sup 136}Eu has only been observed in a mixed source. The energy of the 17.5 s isomer in {sup 136}Cs was determined since the last evaluation, however, the branching ratio remains unknown. This work supersedes the earlier full evaluation of A=136 by A.A. Sonzogni (2002So05), and benefited tremendously from all previous evaluations of A=136.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=254☆

Spectroscopic data for known A=254 nuclides (U, Cf, Es, Fm, Md, No, Lr and Rf) have been updated and re-evaluated, superseding the data presented in the previous evaluation 2005Bh12 published by A. Bhagwat, N.J. Thompson and J.K. Tuli. With the exception of the {sup 254}No nuclide, excited-state data for A=254 nuclei are largely unknown. The decay of the 184−μs isomer in {sup 254}No has been studied in two independent experiments, results of which differ significantly, thus precluding adoption of any one particular decay scheme. Only the features that are consistent in these studies are included in the Adopted dataset, whereas independent decay schemes are presented in separate datasets. Information is also presented here for possible production of the {sup 254}U nuclide in a study (1960Di03) of debris of the first large-scale thermonuclear test (Ivy Mike) of November 1, 1952 in the Pacific Ocean.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=73☆

Experimental nuclear structure data for the known A=73 isobaric nuclides (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge, As, Se, Br, Kr, Rb and Sr) have been evaluated, and presented together with Adopted properties of level energies, and associated γ rays. The decay data for these nuclides have also been evaluated, providing Adopted values of γ and β radiations, and log ft values. For {sup 73}Mn, only the isotopic identification has been established, with no knowledge of its g.s. half-life. For {sup 73}Fe, {sup 73}Co and {sup 73}Sr, only the ground states and their half-lives are known with no information about the excited states. For {sup 73}Ni, {sup 73}Cu, {sup 73}Zn and {sup 73}Rb, little data are available for excited states. The half-life and decay modes of possibly proton-unbound {sup 73}Rb need firmly established. {sup 73}Ga structure presents a special challenge in that the 1/2{sup −} ground state and the first 3/2{sup −} state have recently been proposed, in a Coulomb excitation experiment by 2010Di14, to form an almost degenerate doublet with an estimated spacing of 229 Th with its first excited state at 7.8 eV, and {sup 235}U with its first excited state at 76 eV. Ultra-high resolution gamma-ray spectroscopic studies are warranted to search for the low-lying (73 Ga, and to determine its half-life. Level structures of {sup 73}Ga, {sup 73}Ge, {sup 73}As, {sup 73}Se, {sup 73}Br and {sup 73}Kr are quite well known, although decay schemes of radioactive ground states of {sup 73}Co, {sup 73}Cu and {sup 73}Br are considered incomplete. The reactions and decays for which no new experimental information has become available since the 2003 update have undergone revisions to incorporate conversion coefficients from BrIcc code, and evaluated Q values from 2017Wa10, but essential content of such datasets may have remained the same as in previous evaluations. In this respect the present work greatly benefited from all the previous NDS evaluations (2004Si08,1993Ki25,1987Ki13, 1980Ek01,1974Al33), but at the same time data presented herein supersede all the previous published evaluations.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 26

Evaluated spectroscopic data and level schemes from radioactive decay and nuclear reaction studies are presented for {sup 26}O, {sup 26}F, {sup 26}Ne, {sup 26}Na, {sup 26}Mg, {sup 26}Al, {sup 26}Si, {sup 26}P, and {sup 26}S. This evaluation for A = 26 supersedes the earlier one by P. M. Endt (1998En04) and updates for some nuclides in ENSDF. Highlights of this evaluation are the following: This evaluation includes search results for {sup 26}S nuclide and its proton–decay mode (2011Fo08). An isomeric state (2.2 ms) in {sup 26}F has been discovered by 2013Le03. The state is proposed at 643.4 keV 1 from γ–ray measurements. Internal-transition and beta-decay branches for the state are also determined. New excited levels in {sup 26}Ne have been identified from {sup 26}F β{sup −} decay (2.2 ms). For some {sup 26}Si resonance states conflicting spin-parity assignments exist in the literature. These are identified by footnotes. 2015Do07 ({sup 3}He,nγ) propose the first 0+ state above proton separation energy at an excitation energy of 5890 keV and suggested for additional independent measurements to confirm or refute the existence of 5946 keV 4. 2016Ch09 consider 5946 keV level as a distinct excited state in their reanalysis of the literature data with possible spin-parity assignment of 0+ or 4+ This evaluation also includes discovery of an isomeric state, at 164.1 keV 1, in {sup 26}P by 2014NiZZ.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 61

The evaluated spectroscopic data are presented for known nuclides of mass 61 (Sc,Ti,V,Cr,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni, Cu,Zn,Ga,Ge). Excited-state data are nonexistent for {sup 61}Sc, {sup 61}Ti, {sup 61}V, and {sup 61}Ge. Significant amounts of new data have been added since the previous NDS evaluation of A=61 nuclides (1999Bh04). {sup 61}Sc nuclide is now experimentally known, but without any knowledge of its half-life. The ground state half-lives of {sup 61}Ti and {sup 61}V are now determined. Excited-state data have become available for {sup 61}Cr, {sup 61}Mn and {sup 61}Ga, while for {sup 61}Ge, five excited states were erroneously assigned in the previous evaluation, these have been omitted here. Improved and extensive high-spin excitations are available for {sup 61}Fe, {sup 61}Cu and {sup 61}Zn, including several new superdeformed structures in {sup 61}Cu and {sup 61}Zn. Thermal neutron capture γ-ray data are available in detail from 2004Ra23. The radioactive decay schemes of {sup 61}Sc and {sup 61}Ti are not known, while those for {sup 61}V, {sup 61}Fe and {sup 61}Ge are poorly known. This work benefited from the earlier full evaluations of A=61 published by 1999Bh04, 1983Ek01 and 1975Au05 and the one published in an ‘update’ mode by 1992Zh31. The data and conclusions presented in the current work supersede those in all the previous evaluations.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 87

The evaluated experimental data are presented for 14 known nuclides of mass 87 (Ga, Ge, As, Se, Br, Kr, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Tc, Ru). New datasets have been added for {sup 87}Ga, {sup 87}Se, {sup 87}Kr, {sup 87}Rb, {sup 87}Sr, {sup 87}Nb, and {sup 87}Tc. The observation of and new lifetime measurements for {sup 87}As at the NSCL Coupled Cyclotron Facility and the Oak Ridge Isochronous Cyclotron at the HRIBF–ORNL Facility are included in the adopted levels for this isotope. The new evaluation also includes an isomeric level at unknown energy for {sup 87}Tc, changes to the adopted levels for {sup 87}Nb based on newly published data including an extension of the high spin levels and new lifetime measurements, and new heavy ion data for {sup 87}Kr. New high spin levels for {sup 87}Rb were observed, indicating possible neutron core excitations. In addition, the ground state lifetime of {sup 87}Rb has been revised and a new lifetime measurement for an excited level in {sup 87}Rb indicates a possible proton spin flip. New excitation levels have been observed for the first time in {sup 87}Se. New direct and precise measurement of atomic masses of {sup 87}Tc, {sup 87}Mo, {sup 87}Nb, {sup 87}Zr, {sup 87}Mo and {sup 87}Tc have greatly improved the Q value landscape in this mass region. This work supersedes the previous A=87 evaluation published in 2002He09, and Q values for all isotopes were updated to incorporate the mass evaluation in 2012Wa38.
