Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 198

The 2009 version of Nuclear Data Sheets for A=198 (2009Hu11) has been updated and revised on the basis of the experimental results from various decay and reaction studies before December 2014. The experimental data for all known nuclei with mass number A=198 (Re,Os,Ir,Pt,Au,Hg,Tl,Pb,Bi,Po,At,Rn,Fr) have been revised, updated, and incorporated into the ENSDF data file. The experimental methods, references, Jπ arguments, and necessary comments are given in the text. The adopted levels for 198Re and 198Fr are firstly presented in this evaluation. In addition, Q values have been updated based on 2012Wa38.
