Nuclear Wallet Cards


Nuclear Wallet Cards present properties for ground and isomeric states of all known nuclides. Properties given are:

  • Spin and parity assignments
  • Nuclear mass excesses
  • Half-life, isotopic abundances
  • Decay modes

Appendices contain properties of elements, fundamental constants and other userful information. Nuclear Wallet Cards booklet is published by the National Nuclear Data Center and its electronic (current) version is periodically updated. The Nuclear Wallet Cards by Dr. Jagdish K. Tuli, presently in its 8th edition, are distributed as a booklet (larger font version here, the data table as an ASCII file is available upon request, and a free Android Wallet Cards app is available for your Android enabled phone. An iPhone version developed at INL is also available. To find it visit the the iphone apps section of the iTunes store. A search for "nuclear data" will display the Nuclear Wallet Cards app, called "iNWC". A web-based version of Nuclear Wallet Cards provides search capabilities on the ground and isomeric state properties. For additional nuclear properties see NuDat.
