Atomic Transition Probability Bibliographic Database
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

CERN Document Server - High Energy Physics Web Library
"Over 430,000 bibliographic records, including 170,000 fulltext documents, of interest to people working in particle physics and related areas. Covers preprints, articles, books, journals, photographs, and much more."

Elastic Photon-Atom Scattering - (dead link)
"The programs and data presented here are useful for evaluating Rayleigh scattering, the contribution to elastic scattering made by the bound electrons of an atom, which dominates elastic scattering for most of the x-ray and low-energy gamma-ray regimes."

Elemental Data Index
"The Elemental Data Index provides access to the holdings of NIST Physics Laboratory online data organized by element. It is intended to simplify the process of retrieving online scientific data for a specific element."
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

GAPHYOR Data Retrieval
A database for Atoms, Molecules, Gases and Plasmas
"...located in Orsay at the Laboratoire de Physique des Gaz et des Plasmas LPGP, produces a database on properties of atoms, molecules and neutral or ionized gases, including chemical reactions."

Gaussian Basis Set Library - (dead link)
"The Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL) Basis Set Order Form allows you to extract Gaussian basis sets, and any related effective core potentials, from the Molecular Science Research Center's Basis Set Library."

Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics Databases

Nanotechnology Database
"This site is designed to present up-to-date sources of information on nanotechnology in the following areas: major research centers, funding agencies, major reports and books. Each component has been carefully reviewed and selected. This site is expected to grow with the continued support and updates from those organizations and individuals working in the field. The summaries which appear were taken directly from each of their respective sites.

NIST Scientific & Technical Databases
"...provides easy access to many (currently over 80) of the NIST scientific and technical databases. These databases cover a broad range of substances and properties from many different scientific disciplines.
- National Institute of Standards and Technology

• Physics
  "The NIST collection of atomic energy levels, transition probabilities, and collision data is widely used by groups for characterizing and modeling all types of gaseous systems, including plasmas, planetary atmospheres, and astrophysical media, and for health physics applications. Databases and publications make these data easy to find and easy to use. The physics online databases have grown into an extensive listing. The NIST Chemistry WebBook now contains electronic and vibrational spectra for over 4000 compounds. The WebBook also contains constants of diatomic molecules."
  • NIST Atomic Spectroscopic Database - (dead link)
    "This database provides access and search capability for critically evaluated data on atomic energy levels, wavelengths, and transition probabilities that are reasonably up-to-date."
• NIST Spectrum of Platinum Lamp for Ultraviolet Spectrograph Calibration
