The Atomic and Molecular Data Unit, which operates within the Nuclear Data Section of the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, Austria, maintains the General Internet Search Engine for Atomic Data (GENIE). The tool allows users to choose from two data types. The first is Oscillator Strengths and/or Transition Probabilities, which includes six databases. Users can specify the ion and the upper and lower wavelength limit. The other data is entitled Electron Impact Cross Sections and/or Rate Coefficients and contains two databases. For these data, users can choose the ion and the process of electron impact as either excitation or ionization. The ease of use and wealth of information that can be obtained from the search engine makes it a great tool for those looking for these specific data types.
