Atomic Masses in the S—Ti Region from PrecisionQ-Value Measurements

Abstract

Masses of twenty-seven nuclides from ${\mathrm{S}}^{32}$ to ${\mathrm{Ti}}^{45}$ have been computed from precision (error≤20 kev) $Q$-value measurements. A number of mass cycles occur which were used for statistical adjustment of the input data. The final masses, obtained by taking as a reference point the ${\mathrm{S}}^{32}$ mass published by Nier and co-workers, are compared to the values measured with mass spectrographic and microwave methods.
