All nuclides for which some experimental information is known are considered. NUBASE2012 covers all up to date experimental data published in primary （journal articles） and secondary （mainly laboratory reports and conference proceedings） references, together with the corresponding bibliographical information. During the development of NUBASE2012, the data available in the ＂Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File＂ （ENSDF） database were consulted, and critically assessed of their validity and completeness. Furthermore, a large amount of new and somewhat older experimental results that were missing in ENSDF were compiled, evaluated and included in NUI3ASE2012. The atomic mass values were taken from the ＂Atomic Mass Evaluation＂ （AME2012, second and third parts of the present issue）. In cases where no experimental data were available for a particular nuclide, trends in the behavior of specific properties in neighboring nuclei （TNN） were examined. This approach allowed to estimate, whenever possible, values for a range of properties, and are labeled in NUBASE2012 as ＂non-experimental＂ （flagged ＂#＂）. Evaluation procedures and policies that were used during the development of this database are presented, together with a detailed table of recommended values and their uncertainties.展开更多

It includes complete information on the experimental input data （including not used and rejected ones）, as well as details on the evaluation procedures used to derive the tables with recommended values given in the second part. This article describes the evaluation philosophy and procedures that were implemented in the selection of specific nuclear reaction, decay and mass-spectrometer results. These input values were entered in the least-squares adjustment procedure for determining the best values for the atomic masses and their uncertainties. Calculation procedures and particularities of the AME are then described. All accepted and rejected data, including outweighed ones, are presented in a tabular format and compared with the adjusted values （obtained using the adjustment procedure）. Differences with the previous AME2003 evaluation are also discussed and specific information is presented for several cases that may be of interest to various AME users. The second AME2012 article, the last one in this issue, gives a table with recommended values of atomic masses, as well as tables and graphs of derived quantifies, along with the list of references used in both this AME2012 evaluation and the NUBASE2012 one （the first paper in this issue）.展开更多
