Nuclear Data Sheets for A=188☆

Evaluated nuclear structure and decay data for all nuclei with mass number A=188 (Lu, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Po) are presented. The experimental data are compiled and evaluated, and best values for level and gamma-ray energies, quantum numbers, lifetimes, gamma-ray intensities, and other nuclear properties are recommended. Inconsistencies and discrepancies that exist in the literature are noted. This work supersedes the earlier evaluation by Balraj Singh (2002Si10), published in Nuclear Data Sheets 95, 387 (2002). The gamma-ray transition probabilities were calculated using the ENSDF analysis program ruler (www-nds.iaea.org/public/ensdf{sub p}gm/). However, the reader should be warned that the program may produce incorrect results when dealing with non-symmetric uncertainties.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=171

Experimental data pertaining to all nuclei with mass number A=171 (Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg) have been evaluated. Level schemes from both radioactive decay and reaction studies are presented, along with associated tables of experimental data and adopted properties for levels and γ rays. This evaluation for A=171, which considers data received by 30 June 2018, supersedes the 2002 evaluation (with a literature cutoff date of August 2002) by Coral M. Baglin, published in Nuclear Data Sheets 96, 399 (2002) and the subsequent evaluation of the ENSDF file for 171Pt by C. Baglin (literature cutoff date of 15 April 2010).

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=170☆

Nuclear structure data pertaining to all nuclei with mass number A=170 have been evaluated, and incorporated into the ENSDF data file. This evaluation supersedes the previous evaluation (Coral M. Baglin), Nuclear Data Sheets 96, 611 (2002), (cutoff date 15 August 2002) and subsequent updates of the ENSDF file for Yb to Dy (cutoff 15 April 2010), Lu (cutoff 8 October 1998), Pt (cutoff 17 February 1999) and Ta, Os (cutoff 7 April 1998). Since the previous evaluation, {sup 170}Gd has been observed and the ground state T{sub 1/2} measured. New excited states have also been observed in the neutron rich {sup 170}Dy. The ground state T{sub 1/2} of {sup 170}Tb has been determined, however, there are currently still no excited states observed in this nucleus. There remains some uncertainty in the ground state and longer-lived isomer in {sup 170}Ir which could warrent further experimental investigation.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 215

The evaluated spectroscopic data are presented for 12 known nuclides of mass 215 (Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Po, At, Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac, Th, Pa). For {sup 215}Hg, {sup 215}Tl, {sup 215}Pb, and {sup 215}Pa nuclei, no excited states are known. The decay characteristics of {sup 215}Hg and {sup 215}Tl are unknown. The decay scheme of {sup 215}Pb is considered as incomplete. Ordering of γ cascades in the decay of 36.9–s isomer of {sup 215}Bi and for high–spin states above 2251 keV in {sup 215}Fr are not established. High–spin excitations, including several isomeric states, are well known in {sup 215}Bi, {sup 215}Po, {sup 215}Rn, {sup 215}Fr, {sup 215}Ra, and {sup 215}Ac. No particle–transfer reaction data are available for any of the A=215 nuclei. The rms charge radii for {sup 215}Pb, {sup 215}Bi, {sup 215}Po, {sup 215}Rn, {sup 215}Fr and {sup 215}Ra have been evaluated by Daniel Abriola, from extrapolation or interpolation of available evaluated data in 2013An02 for radii of respective Z chains using formula 9 in 2004An14. This evaluation was carried out as part of ENSDD–workshop at VECC, Kolkata for Nuclear Structure and Decay Data, organized and hosted by VECC and Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences (BRNS) in Kolkata, India, November 26–29, 2012. This work supersedes the previous A = 215 evaluation (2001Br31) published by E. Browne which covered literature prior to May 2001.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 183

Evaluated nuclear structure and decay data for all nuclides with mass number A=183 (Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg, Tl, Pb) are presented here. At, Po and Fr have not yet been observed, but for prediction of ground state and/or isomer properties see, e.g., 2015Bh08 (At, Fr), 2013Ba41 (Tl), 2013Ho05 (Po). This evaluation includes structure and decay data information available by 15 April 2015 and supersedes that by R.B. Firestone published in Nuclear Data Sheets65, 589 (1992) (literature cutoff 9 January 1991), and subsequent revisions by C.M. Baglin for {sup 183}Au in ENSDF database (literature cutoff 13 March 1999), {sup 183}Hg in Nuclear Data Sheets91, 117 (2000) (literature cutoff 25 September 2000), {sup 183}Tl in Nuclear Data Sheets95, 49 (2002) (literature cutoff 1 January 2002) and {sup 183}Pb in ENSDF (literature cutoff 6 January 2003). Since the prior Nuclear Data Sheets publication of this mass chain: {sup 183}Yb (2012Ku26) and {sup 183}Pb (2006An11, 2006Se18, 2007De09, 2009Se13) have been observed; our knowledge of high–spin states has been significantly expanded for {sup 183}Ta (2009Sh17), {sup 183}W (1999Sa60), {sup 183}Re (1998Ha51, 2001Sh41), {sup 183}Au (2002Jo18, 2005So01) and {sup 183}Tl (2001Mu26, 2004Ra28); a large amount of new structure information for {sup 183}W has been obtained from transfer reactions (1997Pr02, 2011Bo09), (n,n'γ) (1993Pr09) and thermal neutron capture (1993Pr09, 1997Pr02, 2011Bo09, 2014Hu02), as well as from the two–photon cascade study by 2005Su29.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 235

Spectroscopic data and level schemes from radioactive decay and nuclear reaction studies are presented here for all nuclei with mass number A=235. The highlight of this evaluation consists of the precise and comprehensive Coulomb excitation study (2012Wa35) on {sup 235}U, which in addition to the 7/2[743] ground state rotational band, extended the 1/2[631], 5/2[622], 5/2[752], and 3/2[631] rotational bands up to Jπ=53/2+, 49/2+, 441/2−, and 43/2+, respectively. This evaluation presents a study (2010Hu02) of the {sup 237}Np({sup 116}Sn, {sup 118}Snγ) reaction where the ground state rotational band 5/2[642] was observed up to Jπ=(53/2+). It is worth for historical knowledge to mention the report on the “Discovery of isotopes of the transuranium elements with 93≤Z≤98” (2013Fr02), where the information for elements Np, Pu, and Am with mass number A=235 is given. {sup 235}Cf has not been observed. The alpha hindrance factors (HF) presented in this evaluation were calculated using values of the radius parameter (r{sub 0}) interpolated from those for even–even adjacent nuclei given by 1998Ak04.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 79

Nuclear spectroscopic information for known nuclides of mass number 79 (Ni,Cu,Zn,Ga,Ge,As,Se,Br,Kr,Rb, Sr,Y,Zr) has been evaluated and presented together with adopted energies, Jπ, and decay modes of levels in these nuclei. No data are yet available for excited states in {sup 79}Ni, {sup 79}Cu and {sup 79}Zr. The half–life of {sup 79}Se, a nuclide of importance in reactor–irradiated fuel composition has been measured by several independent groups and reported in a number of publications after 1995, and seems to be converging to a narrow margin of experimental values. These measurements were likely prompted by a recommendation made in the 1993 update of A = 79 nuclides (1993Si28), that since a 1949PaZZ report, there had been no measurement until 1993, and that based on simulation studies by 1993HeZW, the value listed in 1949PaZZ, and cited in all data tables and charts for 44 years, was quite likely in error, being too low by a factor of 10. According to conclusions in recent papers such as 2014Do20, there is still room for improvement in the measurement of this half–life, and further experiments are expected. This evaluation supersedes earlier Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 79 (2002Si13,1993Si28, 1982Si21,1975Ur03).

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=69

Experimental data on ground– and excited–state properties for all known nuclei with mass number A=69 have been compiled and evaluated. States populated in radioactive decay, as well as in nuclear reactions, have been considered. For these nuclei, level and decay schemes, as well as tables of nuclear properties, are given in detail. This work supersedes the 2000 evaluation by M.R. Bhat and J.K. Tuli (2000Bh05)

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 239

Spectroscopic data and level schemes from radioactive decay and nuclear reaction studies are presented here for all nuclei with mass number A=239. In general, a relatively small amount of new data on this mass chain has been reported since the previous evaluation in 2003. However, special evaluations, such as ''Database of prompt gamma rays from slow neutron–capture from elemental analysis'' (2007ChZX), have provided additional precise data for levels in 29 U. Also, new Coulomb excitation measurements in 239 Pu have extended the knowledge of the 1/2[631] rotational band up to Jπ=(55/2+)Jπ=(55/2+), and that of the octupole vibrational band up to Jπ=(53/2-)Jπ=(53/2-). For historical knowledge it is worth mentioning the report on the “Discovery of isotopes of the transuranium elements with 93 <= Z <= 98'' (2013Fr02), where the information for elements Np, Pu, Am, and Cf with mass number A=239 is presented. The alpha hindrance factors (HF) presented in this evaluation were calculated using values of the radius parameter (r 0 ) interpolated from those for even–even adjacent nuclei given by 1998Ak04.

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).
