Sources of Atomic and Nuclear Data for Biomedical Purposes

Users of nuclear and atomic data for biomedical purposes often have difficulty in identifying the most up-to-date and appropriate sources of such data. The biomedical Subcommittee of the UK Nuclear Data Committee have prepared a list of recommended data sources available at the beginning of 1978 on radioactive decay schemes; neutron cross-sections and data for neutron activation analysis; excitation functions for the production of radionuclides by charged particles; W-values for neutron and electron dosimetry; X- and gamma-ray cross-sections; stopping powers and ranges for charged particles; and dose deposition by electrons and beta particles.
