Abstract

Updated DDEP evaluations have been presented for the decay characteristics of the radionuclides (24)Na, (46)Sc, (51)Cr, (54)Mn, (57)Co, (59)Fe, (88)Y and (198)Au. Previous DDEP evaluations for these radionuclides were published in the BIPM-5 monographie in 2004. The experimental data published during the intervening period of 2004-2014 were taken into account in the current evaluations as well as other information: new compilations, analyses, and corrections. The updated evaluations are compared to previous results.
