Expand description

Element and isotope reference data.

Provides element symbols, names, and natural isotopic abundances for all elements relevant to neutron resonance imaging.

Delegates to the endf-mat crate for raw lookup data.

Functions§

element_name
Element name lookup by atomic number Z.
element_symbol
Element symbol lookup by atomic number Z.
has_endf_evaluation
Whether the ENDF/B-VIII.0 sublibrary has an evaluation for (Z, A).
isotope_from_za
Parse ENDF ZA identifier back to an Isotope.
isotope_to_string
Format isotope as standard string, e.g. “U-238”.
known_isotopes
Get all isotopes with ENDF evaluations for element Z.
natural_abundance
Natural isotopic abundance for a given isotope, as a fraction (0.0 to 1.0).
natural_isotopes
Get all naturally occurring isotopes for element Z.
parse_isotope_str
Parse an isotope string like “U-238”, “Pu-239”, “Fe-56”.
symbol_to_z
Look up atomic number Z from element symbol (case-insensitive).
za_from_isotope
Compute ENDF ZA identifier: Z * 1000 + A.
