Element
A metatype for defining atomic elements properties.
Attributes
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Z | number |
Atomic charge number. |
| A | number |
Atomic mass number, in g/mol. |
| I | number |
Mean Excitation Energy (MEE), in GeV. |
Constructor
The Element metatype is a simple container for atomic elements properties. Its constructor requires three mandatory arguments as detailled in the synopsis below: the atomic charge, Z, the atomic mass, A and the Mean Excitation Energy, I, of its electronic structure.
