Class Isotope

A special object for the element container for holding different isotope information.

Instance Methods

__init__(self, A=None, atomic_mass=None, spin=None, gyromagnetic_ratio=None)
Set up the isotope object.

Method Details

__init__(self, A=None, atomic_mass=None, spin=None, gyromagnetic_ratio=None)
(Constructor)

Set up the isotope object.

Parameters:

• A (int) - The mass number of the isotope.
• atomic_mass (str) - The atomic mass of the isotope. This uses the string notation with the uncertainty specified in brackets at the end.
• spin (int or float) - Nuclear spin or angular momentum of the isotope in units of h/2pi.
• gyromagnetic_ratio (float) - The nuclear gyromagnetic ratio.
