Nuclear decay data: observations and reflections.
Decay data constitute an important feature of nuclear physics that plays a significant role in the various work programmes of members and associates of the International Committee for Radionuclide Metrology (ICRM). At the invitation of the ICRM, a review has been undertaken with the joint aims of emphasising decay-data achievements over the previous 10 years, and highlighting inadequacies that remain to be addressed in the future.
