INCH is a C++ project aimed at providing a simple method of creating high quality (preferably vector graphic) images of a bespoke region of the nuclear, sometimes referred to as Segre, chart.
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:
- The Atomic Mass Evaluation
- The NUBASE evaluation of nuclear and decay properties
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.
As it currently stands, the available outputs, and what they can do are:
| Functionality | Encapsulated Postscript (*.eps) | LaTeX/PGF/TikZ | Scalable Vector Graphics (*.svg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Create and position a shape representing an isotope | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| Add text to the icon representing an isotope | ✔️ | ✔️ | ❌ |
| Show magic numbers | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Show R-process | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Show key | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Show drip lines | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |
Simplest way to aquire 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 --recursive-submodules https://github.com/php1ic/inch.git
The project is built using cmake and instructions on building can be found in the file INSTALL.md.
The following files, within ./data_files/, should NOT be altered. Although they are all freely available from the above links if they are modified.
FRLDM_ME.tbl
mass.mas03
mass.mas12
mass16.txt
nubtab03.asc
nubase.mas12
nubase2016.txt
Any other files in ./data_files/ are used for extra functionality and in some cases are recreated if not present. As always, if you aren't sure, don't change it and if you do, backup!
There is an attempt to follow SemVer for versioning numbers. For the currently available versions, see the tags on this repository.
