Abstract

A method for self-consistent evaluation of the absolute emission probabilities for particles and photons accompanying radionuclide decays was applied to the evaluation of the 244Cm alpha decay data. The absolute emission probabilities evaluated by the method meet the accurate balance relationships. The self-consistency of the results was reached through an iterative scheme of calculations, using the DDEP recommended probabilities for alpha transitions to the five 240Pu highly excited levels as an initial approximation.
