STRENGTHS OF GAMMA-RAY TRANSITIONS IN A = 5-44 NUCLEI, IV

The strengths of γ-ray transitions in A = 5-44 nuclei are discussed and classified according to character: Electric (E) or magnetic (M), multipolarity (L), and isospin retardation (isoscalar, IS, or isovector, IV). All transitions are listed which have strength errors below 50%, but of the very abundant E1IV, E1IS, E2IS, and M1IV transitions, only about the 5% strongest transitions are given. Because the total number of transitions has increased considerably from that in a previous review (4261 compared to 2419 in 1979) recommended upper limits (RUL) for γ-ray strengths could be derived with more confidence. © 1993 Academic Press.
