Title: Spontaneous fission activities (from Nuclear Data Sheets, v.26, issue 1, 1979)

Journal Article · · Nucl. Data Sheets; (United States)

For several years, the Nuclear Data Project has been using a standard computer-readable format to organize the results of data evaluations published in Nuclear Data Sheets. Adopted values for level energies, spins, half-lives, radiation properties, and spectroscopic factors are recorded in standard blocks of information, which are then filed onto indexed direct-access storage. The resulting Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File (ENSDF) is then available as a standard source of nuclear structure information. Computer organization of selected data into pages has been a feature of Nuclear Data Sheets since 1975. As an illustration of the power and potential usefulness of the ENSDF system, we present a collection of nuclear levels for which the spontaneous fission has been studied. The values tabulated have appeared in recent issues of Nuclear Data Sheets. The selection of values and arrangement into a table has been done completely automatically. We welcome comments and criticisms about the form or content of this table.
