Basically a class which parses the NIST Atomic Spectra Database for energy levels and lines and saves the data to a dictionary on HDD.
- You can pass a matplotlib.axis, and the emission lines will be plotted with an optional normalization factor
- You can plot the data directly
- You can print the emission line data and access it
- You can print the energy level data and access it
Example usage:
>>> pip install nist-asd
from nistasd import NISTLines, NISTASD
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
if __name__ == '__main__':
import pandas as pd
nist = NISTLines(spectrum='N')
energy_levels = nist.get_energy_levels()
for ion_stage in energy_levels:
print("Number of levels: {0} for {1}".format(len(energy_levels[ion_stage]), ion_stage))
df = pd.DataFrame(energy_levels[ion_stage])
print(df)
break
nist = NISTLines(spectrum='O', lower_wavelength=2., upper_wavelength=50., order=1)
# plotting to existing axis with scaling parameter
plt.figure()
ax = plt.gca()
nist.plot_nist_lines_to_axis(ax, normalize_max=10.)
plt.grid()
# plotting lines to new window
nist.plot_lines()
plt.savefig('nist-asd-example-plot.pdf')
plt.show()
# printing information
nist = NISTLines(spectrum='O', lower_wavelength=17.20, upper_wavelength=17.35, order=1)
lines = nist.get_lines()
print("Number of lines: ", len(lines))
lines_within_range = nist.get_lines_wavelength_range()
print("Number of lines within range: ", len(lines_within_range))
print("Line data within range:")
nist.pprint()Results in: Plot result
