Nuclear chart player

Nuclear Chart Player#

The nuclear chart player allows you to plot nuclear properties over the nuclear chart, such as:

  • Ground state life time
  • 1st and 2nd isomer life time
  • 1st excited state energy
  • Decay mode
  • B(E2: \(2^{+}_{1} \rightarrow 0^{+}_{1}\)) in \(e^{2}b^{2}\) and Weisskopf unit

The tool is available from the Cubix tools menu after the TkN database has finished loading.

Reading nucleus information#

When selecting a nucleus, either by clicking on it or by writing its name in the Nucleus field, the selected information is plotted in the left panel and printed in the terminal:

  • Nucleus ground state properties
  • Nuclear level properties
  • Nuclear \(\gamma\)-ray properties

The last two properties are printed for the selected data-set:

Use the data-set selector to inspect information from a specific evaluated or experimental data set when several data sets are available for the same nucleus.
