Databases

Databases for X-ray Absorption and XAFS measurements

• X-ray Absorption Cross-Section and Absorption Coefficient Calculations Periodic Table of x-ray absorption values (aka The McMaster Tables).

• X-ray Interaction with Matter at LBL Center for X-ray Optics

• Henke Atomic Scattering Factors emphasizing lower energies.

• X-ray Mass Attenuation Coefficients at NIST

• XOP X-ray Oriented Programs

• X-ray Data Booklet (The Orange Book) You need this book.

• Various periodic tables of X-ray energies

Crystallography

• Crystallography Open Database : CIF files of inorganic and small organic crystals in the public domain

Reference data

• XAFS Data Library : A framework for a simple flask and SQLite based data library.

• The Farrel Lytle Database at IIT (This is a “database” in the loosest possible sense of the term. Converting thesed data to a usable form is a non-trivial problem. Perhaps point to some examples of how to do so.)

Multiple Electron Excitations
