In nuclear physics, the internal conversion coefficient describes the rate of internal conversion. There is no valid formulation for an equivalent concept for E0 (electric monopole) nuclear transitions. There are theoretical calculations that can be used to derive internal conversion coefficients. This early attempt to compile this data into a chart, was conducted by a team in America, led by Chief Physicist of Oak Ridge National Laboratory M.E. Rose. This was a 10 year program resulting in a "complete compendium of all the numerican information (to date) about internal conversion coefficients". With a short table of "transition amplitudes for K conversion".
