Atlas of Discrete Resonance Capture Strength Functions

A new updated database of calibrated Photon Strength Functions derived from Discrete Resonance Capture (DRC) data [1] is available here. The data file ATLAS DRC f(L) - 2018 (ATLAS DRC-2018) includes all available DRC measurement for 57 nuclides stored in the standard E_g, f(L), df(L), Ex and Jpi format. This is the first time that DRC data are processed into a database in a similar manner as the ARC measurements. Some of the DRC data have, due the presence of a small number of resonances, an inferior accuracy, but in general many of them form a rich complementary extension to the ATLAS ARC f(L)-2019 (ATLAS ARC-2019) [2].

This new ATLAS DRC-2018 file has been combined with the ATLAS ARC-2019 file to form an ATLAS ARC/DRC-2019 file which has been adopted in the PSF database [3].

All measured DRC data including the recommended ones are compiled in the updated Atlas (2021). The method of analysis is detailed in [2].
