We have calculated the masses, deformations, and other properties of 8979 nuclei ranging from oxygen-16 to Z = 136, A = 339 and extending from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line on the basis of the 1992 version of the finite-range droplet model. The predicted quantities include the ground-state mass, deformation, microscopic correction, odd-proton and odd-neutron spins and parities, proton and neutron pairing gaps, binding energy, one- and two-neutron separation energies, quantities related to beta-delayed one- and two-neutron emission probabilities, beta-decay energy release and half-life with respect to Gamow-Teller decay, one- and two-proton separation energies, and alpha-decay energy release and half-life. For 1654 nuclei heavier than oxygen-16 whose masses were known experimentally in 1989 and which were included in the adjustment of model constants, the theoretical error is 0.669 MeV. For 371 additional nuclei heavier than oxygen-16 whose masses have been measured between 1989 and 1996 and which were not used in the adjustment of the model constants, the theoretical error is 0.570 MeV.
