Electron/Photon/Relaxation Data Library—eprdata14

Released: 2015-07-02

The eprdata14 library is based on the EPICS2014 (Electron and Photon Interaction Cross Section) data from the IAEA, prepared Dermott E. "Red" Cullen. It was processed into ACE format by H. Grady Hughes at Los Alamos National Laboratory.

There is data for elements hydrogen (Z=1) to Fermium (Z=100). All of the ZAIDS are elemental and so the A is 000 for every data table. For example, the ZA 1000 is for hydrogen, 26000 for iron, 92000 for uranium, and similarly for all other elements. All of the ZAIDS in the eprdata14 library use the .14p extension.

Please note that this data was not produced by the Nuclear Data Team at Los Alamos National Laboratory and therefore support for this library is limited.

Documentation

There is little documentation about the eprdata14 library specifically, but the data associated with the eprdata12 library is illustrative.
