Abstract

As a rule the evaluated decay data and their uncertainties reflect the current level of consistency of the experimental data as well as its shortage. However, if we assume a priori that the structure of the decay scheme is precisely established, the inclusion of the exact balance relationships in the evaluation procedure leads to lower uncertainties of the recommended data and strong correlations between some of the evaluated parameters. Such a self-consistent decay data evaluation was carried out using the 242Cm alpha decay as an example.
