RN_index_screen: Screen radionuclide data to find matches to decay mode,...

In radsafer: Radiation Safety

Screen radionuclide data to find matches to decay mode, half-life, and total emission energy

Description

Provides a set of radionuclides matching screening criteria. This is a limited screening based on average energy per transformation. Consider RN_search_phot_by_E, RN_search_alpha_by_E, and RN_search_beta_by_E for spectroscopic measurement matching.

Usage

RN_index_screen(
  dk_mode = NULL,
  min_half_life_seconds = NULL,
  max_half_life_seconds = NULL,
  min_E_alpha = NULL,
  min_E_electron = NULL,
  min_E_photon = NULL
)

Arguments

dk_mode	default = NULL #' select from: 'A' for Alpha 'B-' for Beta Negative 'B+' for Beta Positive 'EC' for Electron Capture 'IT' for Isomeric Transition 'SF' for Spontaneous Fission
min_half_life_seconds	default = NULL. If half-life is known in units other than seconds, enter with conversion factor, e.g. for 15 minutes, enter min_half_life_seconds = 15 * 60.
max_half_life_seconds	default = NULL. If half-life is known in units other than seconds, enter with conversion factor, e.g. for 30 minutes, enter max_half_life_seconds = 30 * 60.
min_E_alpha	default = NULL. This will be used to screen the index for average alpha energy per decay, including all decay branches.
min_E_electron	default = NULL. This will be used to screen the index for average electron energy per decay, including all decay branches.
min_E_photon	default = NULL. This will be used to screen the index for average photon energy per decay, including all decay branches.

Value

data frame of radionuclide data from the RadData package index data (RadData::ICRP_07.NDX), matching search criteria.
