The European Activation File: EAF-2007

The European Activation File (EAF) is an extensive data library prepared for the European Activation System (EASY). The EAF-2007 library contains a suite of sublibraries. The neutron data library contains 65,565 excitation functions involving 816 different targets from ¹H to ²⁵⁷Fm, atomic numbers 1 to 100, in the energy range 10^-5 eV to 60 MeV. The EAF-2007 library includes also deuteron-induced data (66,864 reactions) and proton-induced data (67,925 reactions).
The EAF decay data library contains nuclear properties of 2,231 nuclides, such as spin, decay modes, half-life and mean decay energies. The EAF biological, clearance and transport libraries are also included. The data contains biological, clearance and transport coefficients of all the 2,004 radionuclides in the libraries, such as activity, committed effective doses per unit uptake for ingestion and inhalation, the source of the biological data, the transport coefficient (A2) and the clearance level value.
Uniquely, an uncertainty file is also provided that quantifies the degree of confidence placed on the data for each reaction channel.
