Revision of the evaluated UKCNDC activation-product decay-data library

Abstract

The Data Library Sub-committee of the UK Chemical Nuclear Data Committee (UKCNDC) is responsible for the construction and maintenance of the following radioactive-decay-data libraries: 1. (1) Fission-Product Decay Data (UKFPDD-2) 2. (2) Activation-Product Decay Data (UKPADD-1) 3. (3) Heavy-Element Decay Data (UKHEDD-1). Efforts have begun to expand the Activation-Product Decay-Data Library considerably in order to satisfy decay-data requirements for possible fusion- as well as fission-reactor systems. This new library (UKPADD-2) will contain decay data for 410 nuclides.
