Consultancy Meeting on Evaluation and Uncertainty Assessment for Be, C, Ne Atomic Data
A meeting was held at IAEA Headquarters from 13 – 15 July 2015 to evaluate, assess uncertainties in, and recommend collisional data involving beryllium, carbon and neon for fusion applications.
An article resulting from work carried out as part of this evaluation project was published in Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables:
Dipti, T. Das, K. Bartschat, I. Bray, D. Fursa, O. Zatsarinny, C. Ballance, H. Chung, Y. Ralchenko, "Recommended electron-impact excitation and ionization cross sections for Be I", Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables (2018).
