Status of transactinium nuclear data in the Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File
The organization and program of the Nuclear Data Project are described. An Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File (ENSDF) was designed to contain most of the data of nuclear structure physics. ENSDF includes adopted level information for all 1950 known nuclei, and detailed data for approximately 1500 decay schemes. File organization, management, and retrieval are reviewed. An international network of data evaluation centers has been organized to provide for a four-year cycle of ENSDF revisions. Standard retrieval and display programs can prepare various tables of specific data, which can serve as a good first approximation to a complete up-to-date compilation. Appendixes list, for A > 206, nuclear levels with lifetimes > or = 1 s, strong ..gamma.. rays from radioisotopes (ordered by nuclide and energy), and strong ..cap alpha.. particle emissions (similarly ordered). 8 figures.
