Template:Isotopes summary/doc
![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Isotopes summary. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
The master template provides an {{Isotopes summary}} table. It is designed to be used in element article sections, like Roentgenium#Isotopes.
Contents
Usage
This template is used in the articles for superheavy elements to produce the sortable lists of isotopes. It was created to simplify formatting and standardize references. For each isotope, a row {{isotopes summary/isotope}} is to be added.
The template {{notelist}} is required on any pages that use this template.
Parameters
Main template (table body)
|element= |year_ref= |reaction_ref= |isotopes= <!-- tablerow subtemplates, see below -->
Parameter | Description | Notes |
---|---|---|
|element=
|
The name of the element | Case-sensitive, should be written in lowercase |
|year_ref=
|
Reference for the "Discovery year" column | Defaults to {{NUBASE2016}} |
|reaction_ref=
|
Reference for the "Discovery reaction" column | Defaults to pp. 229, 234, 238 in {{Thoennessen2016}} |
Isotopes parameter
Use {{Isotopes summary/isotope}} to create one row for each isotope in the table.
|mn= |sym= |hl= |ref= |dm= |year= |re=
Parameter | Description | Notes |
---|---|---|
|mn=
|
Isotope mass number | |
|sym=
|
Element symbol | |
|hl=
|
Most recently published half-life. Values are from {{NUBASE2016}} unless a paper published in 2015 or later gives a different value. |
Use {{sort}} to assign sortable values. Do not include unknown isotopes. (i.e. those with no discovery year listed) |
|ref=
|
Reference for the half-life column. | Add as a footnote (<ref></ref>). |
|dm=
|
Decay modes | There can be multiple separated with commas. |
|year=
|
Discovery year | Citation already in table header. |
|re=
|
Synthesis reaction | Written the same as in normal tables or article text. Citation already in table header. |
Sample use
{{Isotopes summary |element=tennessine |year_ref=<ref name=nubase /> <!--not fully included here, but a normal citation--> <!-- |reaction_ref= not included, so the default value is used --> |isotopes= <!--add one sub-template for each isotope--> {{isotopes summary/isotope |mn=293 |sym=Ts |ref=<ref name=shesummary /> <!--not fully included here, but a normal citation--> |nubase={{sort|00021|21 ms}} |dm=α |year=2010 |re=<sup>249</sup>Bk(<sup>48</sup>Ca,4n) }} <!-- new template, new row--> {{isotopes summary/isotope |mn=294 |sym=Ts |hl={{sort|00051|51 ms}} |ref=<ref name=shesummary /> |dm=α |year=2010 |re=<sup>249</sup>Bk(<sup>48</sup>Ca,3n) }} }}
produces the following:
Isotope | Half-life[lower-alpha 1] | Decay mode |
Discovery year[1] |
Discovery reaction[2] | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Value | Ref | ||||
293Ts | 22 ms | [3] | α | 2010 | 249Bk(48Ca,4n) |
294Ts | 51 ms | [3] | α | 2010 | 249Bk(48Ca,3n) |
