Description:
Nuclear Data Sheets is a journal primarily devoted to the publication of
evaluated nuclear structure and decay data, that is, recommended
values following a careful compilation and analysis of all available
experimental results dealing with nuclear properties such as:
- Nuclear levels: energy, half-life, spin and parity, decay modes,
static moments, bands and configurations.
- Nuclear radiation types: gamma, electron, positron, neutron, proton, alpha.
- Nuclear radiation properties: energy, intensity and other radiation-specific
properties such as multipolarities, mixing ratios and internal conversion
coefficients (gamma rays), log ft values (beta decay) and hindrance factors (alpha decay).
- Nuclear decay types and their probabilities: positron emission, electron capture,
electron emission, double beta decay, isomeric transition; neutron, proton, alpha,
cluster and cluster emission; fission.
Nuclear structure and decay data are presented in tables as well as plotted in level
schemes, band plots and decay schemes. Special Issues on nuclear reaction data are published since 2006.
Nuclear Data Sheets issues are published on a monthly basis.
The ENSDF
database is the source for the nuclear structure and decay articles,
which deal with a single nucleus, or with a number of nuclides
having the same atomic mass number.
Contributions to
ENSDF are made by members
of NSDD, the
international network of Nuclear Structure and Decay Data
evaluators.
The ENSDF and
NSR databases, as well as
their administration, reside at the
NNDC, where the Nuclear Data
Sheets editorial work is also carried out; the journal is published
by Elsevier.
