Abstract Text:
The Spectr-W3 information-reference system was developed in 2001–2003 and realized as an online Web resource based on the factual atomic database Spectr-W3 (http://spectr-w3.snz.ru). The information accumulated in the Spectr-W3 atomic database contains about 450,000 records and includes the experimental and theoretical data on ionization potentials, energy levels, wavelengths, radiation transition probabilities, and oscillator strengths, and the parameters of analytical approximations of electron-collisional cross-sections and rates for atoms and ions. Those data were extracted from publications in physical journals, proceedings of the related conferences, special-purpose publications on atomic data, provided directly by authors and obtained in previous years by the Spectr-W3 project participants. The information is supplied with references to the original sources and comments, elucidating the details of experimental measurements or calculations. To date, the Spectr-W3 atomic database is still the largest factual database in the world, containing the information on spectral properties of multicharged ions.
In 2007 this collaborative effort was followed by a new project aimed at the creation of a qualitatively updated version of the Spectr-W3 atomic-data information-reference resource on the Web to provide free access to an essentially extended Spectr-W3 atomic database. Project activities are also targeted at the creation of facilities for direct submission of new author’s atomic data for the follow-on dissemination through the Spectr-W3 resource and downloading the selected data in html or xml representation. Updated version of Spectr-W3 is also supplemented with its fully functional local analog (Spectr-CD) generated for the off-line use and available for downloading from the project website. The results of the project are intended for public and non-profit use.
Current status of the project work will be outlined and illustrative results will be presented.
The work has been supported in part by the International Science and Technology Center (ISTC) under the project # 3504.
