FISSION PRODUCT DECAY CHAINS: SCHEMATICS WITH BRANCHING FRACTIONS, HALF-LIVES, AND LITERATURE REFERENCES

Abstract

Schematic diagrams of the decay chains for the fission products of uranium and plutonium are presented, with half-lives of the nuclides, branching fractions, and literature references. The updated data were obtained from a review of the literature through February 1967.
