Atomic and Molecular Data Unit Activities
The Atomic and Molecular Data Unit operates within the Nuclear Data Section of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria.The primary objective of the Atomic and Molecular Data Unit is to establish and maintain internationally recommended numerical databases on atomic and molecular collision and radiative processes, atomic and molecular structure characteristics, particle-solid surface interaction processes and physico-chemical and thermo-mechanical material properties for use in fusion energy research and other plasma science and technology applications.
Databases on Atomic and Molecular Data for Fusion.
Online Computing Capabilities
Knowledge Base for Atomic, Molecular and Plasma-Material Interaction Data for Fusion
Our Unit achieves its objectives by
coordinating the activities of the International Atomic and Molecular Data Center Network (DCN) and Code Center Network (CCN),
initiation and conducting international Coordinated Research Projects (CRP),
organization of various types of Expert's Meetings,
publication of technical reports on meetings and research activities
and using other forms (research contracts, research agreements, consultancies)
for stimulation of the generation, collection and critical assessment of the required
atomic, molecular (A+M) and plasma-material interaction (PMI) data information.
The activity of Our Unit is supervised and biennially
reviewed by the Subcommittee on Atomic and Molecular Data for Fusion of the International
Fusion Research Council (IFRC A+M Subcommittee), an advisory body
to the Agency's Director General.
