The Nuclear Data Reader is aimed at parsing and reading the various files that have been published related to atomic nuclear data. The format of the files is unique, and in constant flux, so takes some effort to parse. This project takes away the need to keep worry about those things and creates json formatted files.
No guarantee is supplied with regards to the accuracy of the data presented. Estimated values are included, please always refer to the original sources. All data should, however, be accurate.
Suggestions/improvements are encouraged, either create an issue or implement the change and send a pull request via github.
The code can read data from the following published papers:
| Year | Atomic Mass Evaluation | NUBASE |
|---|---|---|
| 1971 | URL - DOI (Investigating if data files exists) | ❌ |
| 1977 | URL - DOI (Investigating if data files exists) | ❌ |
| 1983 | URL - DOI | ❌ |
| 1993 | URL - DOI | ❌ |
| 1995 | URL - DOI | ❌ |
| 1997 | No AME, but the 1995AME matches the 1997NUBASE. See section 4, "The tables" on P31 of these proceedings | URL - DOI |

The data contained within is freely available as ASCII files, all of which are included with the project for ease. The newer tables are available on the AMDC website, and the historic page can be used to find older ones.
Simplest way to acquire the repo is to clone it. The project makes use of fmt and Catch2 via submodules so they need to be initialised. The below is enough to get you started.
$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/php1ic/nuclear-data-reader.git
The project is built using cmake and instructions on building can be found in the file INSTALL.md.
The files, within ./data/, should NOT be altered. Although they are all freely available from the above links if they are modified.
There is an attempt to follow SemVer for versioning numbers. For the currently available versions, see the tags on this repository.
