Table of Isotopes

[rkathren@tricity.WSU.edu (Ron L. Kathren)]

On a related topic to the Chart of the Nuclides, Glenn Seaborg published a
Table of Isotopes in an article entitled "Artificial Radioactivity" that
appeared in the August 1940 issue of Chemical Reviews.  An expanded and
updated version  was prepared by Seaborg and published in 1944 in Reviews of
Modern Physics.  Seaborg had been asked to prepare such a Table in 1942, but
the exigencies of his war work slowed his effort on the Table of Isotopes.
The unclassified version was finally submitted to the journal on February
12, 1944; the classified version was completed December 1, 1944, nearlly two
years to the date of the historic strartup of CP-1.
