Look into keyboard macros. You record a sequence of keyboard commands,
and then tell Emacs to rerun them. You can tell it how many times to run
it over and over.
In your case, you can use a regexp search to search for
\(alpha\|delta\|gamma\)_eff:, set a mark, move over the next word, copy
it with M-w, switch to the buffer containing the file you're copying to,
paste with C-y, and switch back to the original buffer.
