Status of ENSDF Analysis and Utility Codes
(March 15, 2002 to September 30, 2003)

Report Prepared for the 2003 USNDP Annual Meeting

Current Status

1. With the exception of RadList all ANSI, Open-VMS, Linux, and MS Windows versions are current with those maintained in-house at the NNDC.
2. Code Revisions (See the relevant "Read Me's" for additional details):

   COMTRANS	1.	Modified to make more stable if multiple runs are made and other problems corrected.
   	2.	Converted to FORTRAN 95 and Linux version added.
   	3.	ISAM dictionary replaced by direct access dictionary
   ENSDAT	1.	Converted to FORTRAN 95.
   	2.	ISAM dictionary replaced by direct access dictionary
   	3.	ENSWIN version discontinued and replaced by option in ENSDAT which will invoke a PostScript viewer such as GhostView.
   FMTCHK	1.	Removed expansion of allowed characters added in 9.0a and replaced with check on new formalism of J, J1, etc. for JPI of level record.
   	2.	Fixed erroneous report for IB+IE .NE. TI when uncetainties non-numeric
   	3.	Added warning on missing RI if absolute normalization, EG<=400 keV, and no CC but TI given on G record.
   	4.	Changed from <E> to <W> "TI field missing".
   	5.	Allow "J GE" and "J LE" in J field.
   	6.	Added checks for possible junk before first parentheses or square bracket and after last parentheses or square bracket in J field.
   	7.	Added check for "/2" without preceding numeric character in J field.
   	8.	IB and EAV check for BETA records not being initialized - Corrected.
   	9.	For EL-EG message, changed to non-numeric format if E(level) had a "+X,...".
   RULER	1.	Fixed problem recognizing asymmetric DT's.
   	2.	Fixed some logic problems in storing +DT and -DT.
   	3.	Fixed Problems with approximate T1/2's when preceded by asymmetric DT's.
   	4.	"2 G" records containing "BM1=",... confused program - Fixed and added note to report to check the record.

In Progress and Future Plans

1. GAMUT:

   The last working VMS version of GAMUT has been converted to MS Windows by Dr. Choi while on sabbatical leave from Seoul National University. Remaining work to be done before release is:

   1. Extensive testing
   2. Upgrade to current ENSDF formats and standards
   3. Porting to Linux and OpenVMS

2. GTOL:

   The limits on levels and gammas stored will be increased to 500 and 2000, respectively.

3. HSICC:

   Work is in progress on converting the HSICC package to use the new Band, et al. Table of Internal Conversion Coefficients. The current status of this effort will be reported at the 2003 USNDP Annual Meeting.

4. LOGFT:

   The logic from the LBNL program ft has been incorporated into LOGFT to calculate 3^rd and higher order unique forbidden transitions. Extensive testing and comparison with the LBNL programs beta and ft still remains before release.

    

   The program currently assumes that the theoretical values used in calculating the electron-capture fractions have no uncertainties, resulting in an underestimate of the electron-capture fractions uncertainty. This will be corrected using the data of Schönfeld.

5. RadList:

   The current in-house version of RadList is being converted to FORTRAN 95 and will be distributed in Linux, MS Windows, and OpenVMS versions.

    

   Calculation of subshell conversion- and Auger-electron and X-ray intensities will be added and the calculation of continua spectra improved. Logic to properly calculate the beta spectra for 3^rd and higher order unique forbidden transitions will be added after the new version of LOGFT is released.

Note: In calender year 2005, maintenance of OpenVMS versions will cease.
