Abstract

Evaluated spectroscopic data and level schemes from radioactive decay and nuclear reaction studies are presented for 59Sc, 59Ti, 59V, 59Cr, 59Mn, 59Fe, 59Co, 59Ni, 59Cu, 59Zn, 59Ga, and 59Ge. This evaluation for A=59 supersedes the earlier one by C. M. Baglin (2002Ba42) and updates for some nuclides in the ENSDF database.Highlights of this evaluation are the following:In 59Fe, a new level at 568.45 keV (3/2−) has been added. This resolves a doublet at 570 keV, which was reflected in earlier evaluations (1983An22, 1993Ba85, 2002Ba42) and literature as well.Conflicting spin assignments for 2153.62 keV level of 59Co [9/2,13/2 in (α,pγ); (13/2) in (15N,4nγ); 15/2 in (p,p′γ), (7/2−) in (n,n′γ)] exist in the literature and additional experimental work is needed to resolve the issue.
