Q(β-)=-8770 keV 16S(n)= 13330 keV SYS(p)= 2148 keV 7Q(α)= -2993 keV 7
Reference: 2012WA38

References:
  A  85Nb IT decay (3.3 S)  B  58Ni(40Ca,3APG)

General Comments:

1988Ku14: Isotope produced by 58Ni(32Se,αp) and 60Ni(28Si,p2n), identified by βγ coincidences with 50γ of 85Zr, measured half-life.

Earlier reports about the production of 85Nb: 1981SaZO, 1978DeYC

There are no data for decay of 85Mo to 85Nb. An isomer identified by 2005Ka39, and another tentative isomer by 1998Oi02

Mass measurements: 2011Ha08 (Penning trap mass spectrometer SHIPTRAP), 2006Ka48, 2012Ka13 (Penning-trap method).

Mass excess=-66273 keV 7 (2006Ka48) is most likely for the ground state since only one resonance was seen. There may be small contribution from the 3.3-s isomer at 69+y with Jπ=(1/2-,3/2-). 2006Ka48 suggested that the low-spin isomer would be much less populated than the (9/2+) g.s. in the heavy-ion fusion reaction used to obtain the 85Nb isotope.

Q-value: Estimated ΔS(n)=300 (syst,2012Wa38)

Q-value: Q(εp)=325 6, S(2n)=24010 300, S(2p)=8653 19 (2012Wa38)

E(level): From least-squares fit to Eγ data

Jπ(level): As proposed by 1999Jo01 based on band assignments from comparisons with TRS calculations and systematics. The measured DCO ratios for selected transitions are consistent with these assignments. The parentheses are added by the evaluators

M(γ): 1999Jo01 assign E2 to ΔJ=2, Q transitions and M1 or M1+E2 to ΔJ=1 transitions based on DCO ratios. For other transitions where no DCO ratios are available, 1999Jo01 assign multipolarities from band assignments. The evaluators assign mult=Q to ΔJ=2 transitions and d or D+Q for ΔJ=1 transitions only when DCO data are available
