Physics

Occasionally I will use this space to review relevant resources, either newly added, updated favorites, or a reintroduction to an oldie. Today, we look at a trio of established resources from NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology):

Atomic Spectral Line Broadening Bibliographic Database
This database contains approximately 800 recent references, all collected after our last published bibliography (NIST Special Publication 366, Suppl. 4, 1993). These papers contain numerical data, general information, comments, and review articles and are part of the collection of the Data Center on Atomic Line Shapes and Shifts at NIST.

Atomic Transition Probability Blibliographic Database
The database presently contains 6570 references, dating from 1914 through June 2002.
These papers contain numerical data, comments, and review articles on atomic transition probabilities (oscillator strengths, line strengths, or radiative lifetimes), and are part of the collection of the Data Center on Atomic Transition Probabilities at NIST.

Atomic Weights and Isotopic Compositions
The atomic weights are available for elements 1 through 112, 114, & 116 and isotopic compositions or abundances are given when appropriate.
