    Nubase2012 and Ame2012 are now available

    The two evaluations Nubase2012 and Ame2012 are in print and will appear
    in the December issue of "Chinese Physics C", as three publications:
      "The Nubase2012 evaluation of nuclear properties" by
         G.Audi, F.G.Kondev, M.Wang, B.Pfeiffer, X.Sun, J.Blachot, M.MacCormick
         Chinese Physics C36 p. 1157-1286, December 2012.
      "The Ame2012 atomic mass evaluation (I).
         Evaluation of input data, adjustment procedures" by
         G.Audi, M.Wang, A.H.Wapstra, F.G.Kondev, M.MacCormick, X.Xu, B.Pfeiffer
         Chinese Physics C36 p. 1287-1602, December 2012.
      "The Ame2012 atomic mass evaluation (II).
         Tables, graphs and references" by
         M.Wang, G.Audi, A.H.Wapstra, F.G.Kondev, M.MacCormick, X.Xu, B.Pfeiffer
         Chinese Physics C36 p. 1603-2014, December 2012.
    It will be a 858 pages issue for which we have ordered 2000 copies
    for distribution to physicists interested. Mailing will be free of
    charge to addresses within institutes.
    The "Ask for reprint" page on the new AMDC Web-site is still open at :

    Please register first, then fill in the form at the "Ask for reprint" page.

    This version of the Nubase+Ame evaluations has been prepared by G. Audi
    from CSNSM-Orsay as a coordinator, and scientist collaborators from
    IMP-Lanzhou, ANL-Argonne, MPIK-Heidelberg, GSI-Darmstadt, and IPN-Orsay.

    Those who are interested can already download from the AMDC Web the
    electronic files (pdf) of these 3 publication:

Special cases :                          G.Audi        m 20 nov 2012

   These notes were prepared for eventual discussion of "Special Cases" in Ame2012
          Special notation : GAu095 = G.Audi May 2009         year=2digits month=1-9,a,b,c
                           : WgM10b = Wang Meng November 2010

   32Si : MSU-LEBIT v/s (n,g) series of 2001Paul52 PTB      (Section 7.3)
          BPf12b : remark by B.Pfeiffer
          Si-31 is unstable T=157 min. Tiny amount of Si-31 in target.
          Too low to detect the gamma rays from the rare capture reactions in Si-31.
          In ILL neutron guide hall : presence of high-energy gamma rays from neutron-capture
          in the air and in the construction material of the neutron guides.
          Entering the gamma transition of 9201.798 keV reported by the Braunschweig group into
          the NUDAT program of Brookhaven, there is a match to Cl-37 (E = 9202.1 keV).
          But no idea how this could have contaminated the measurement.

   48K  : 2012Lapierre05  Titan TT1 in serious conflict with 2 reactions (Can and Mun)
          provisonally preferred TT1 : reliable + systematics look better
          against : the 2 reactions are different type, diff. teams and they agree with each other.

   69Se : 2007Sc24 MS1 Lebit in serious conflict with 69Se(ep)68Ge and 69Se(B+)69As from ChR
         GAu095 preferred ChR
         GAu103 + Wng103 may prefer now LEBIT....

   51Ca-52Ca : TT1 2012Ga29 change landscape of the n-rich Z=20 region
        Estimated masses for the unknown 53Ca-58Ca were then moved down by 1000-1700 keV
        The associated unc. are much smaller than the move, because they were solely based
        on TMS, and do not include unexpected strucutre changes as is the case here.

   94Ag : we have no energy or mass relation for the ground state of 94Ag, only the
        high spin isomer (21+) provides proton decay energy to 93Pd [2005Mu15,2009Ce04].
        A lower limit for 94Ag(B+)94Pd was established by 04Mu30, unfortunately much
        below the value that can be derived from the proton decay, 2.3 MeV higher.
        We adopt the former relation for establishing the mass of 94Agn.
             94Agn(2p)92Rh  3449  100    2359#  402#   -10.9B   2006Mu03,*
        To obtain the mass of the ground state we can only make an estimate from the
        trend of the mass surface TMS, yielding thus an excitation energy of 6350(500) keV.

   102Pd-102Ru  Shiptrap [2011Go23] v/s (B+) (B-) (e) (n,g) two other connexions     (Section 7.3)
        The two other connexions are in perfect agreement with each other.
        If one of datum entering the two chains would be erroneous, there should
        then be an error of exactly the same amount in the other chain.
        Such a situation is highly improbable.
