SUMMARY
This discussion focuses on locating nuclear data, specifically regarding ferromagnetic substances and their nuclear decay processes, particularly through Electron Capture (EC). The National Nuclear Data Center (NNDC) website is highlighted as a valuable resource for accessing this information, allowing users to filter data for elements like Iron (Fe), Cobalt (Co), and Nickel (Ni) while utilizing the Zoom 1 feature to examine specific decay modes. Additionally, users inquire about the availability of hyperfine splitting data for isotopes such as Cobalt-57 on the same platform.
