Modernizing of Drawings and Tables for Nuclear Data Sheets
Project between NNDC, BNL & Roy Zywina.
(Some participation by B. Singh)
(Work Started March 2007)
IAEA-NSDD-07 meeting St. Petersburg, Russia
June 11-15, 2007
Presented by: B. Singh (McMaster)
Roy Zywina
Roy was a student with B. Singh at McMaster from 2001-2004, connected with work on XUNDL project and other ENSDF-related work. For example: extensive code writing for the publication: Table of Superdeformed Nuclear Bands and Fission Isomers:
NDS 97, 241-592 (2002).
Still familiar with ENSDF formats.
Approximate Timeline & Tasks
- Band Drawings: mid July 2007
- General Level-scheme Drawings: end of August 2007
- Levels and Gamma Tables: end of September 2007
- Codes in Java; GUI; pre-review output of drawings and
Tables; tables in LaTeX; drawings in METAPOST
- US-NDP-06: November 2006: Initial proposal to modernize band drawings and other presentations in NDS.
-Mid November 2006: NSDD network members approached for comments and suggestions. Several comments received.
- December 2006: meeting at NNDC: Pavel Oblozinsky, Jagdish Tuli, Tom Burrows, Alejandro Sonzogni, Roy Zywina and Balraj Singh: Plan put in place.
- March 2007: Contract between NNDC and Roy in place.

162Dy bands
New band plots
• Improved legibility.• More flexibility in generating plots, possibly
by the evaluator prior to submission.• Less number of printed NDS pages.
Example: 165Lu: 4 (landscape), 6 (portrait), 9 in published NDS (2006).
Comments and suggestions welcome!
