Manuscript Title: An improved version of ISICS: a program for calculating K-, L- and M-shell cross sections from PWBA and ECPSSR theory using a personal computer | ||
Authors: Sam J. Cipolla | ||
Program title: ISICS | ||
Catalogue identifier: ADDS_v2_0 Distribution format: tar.gz | ||
Journal reference: Comput. Phys. Commun. 176(2007)157 | ||
Programming language: C++. | ||
Computer: 80486 or higher-level PCs. | ||
Operating system: WINDOWS XP. | ||
Keywords: Atomic K-, L-, M-Shell ionization, PWBA and ECPSSR cross sections, Ion-Atom collisions, C++ package, Gauss-Legendre quadrature integration techniques. | ||
PACS: 34.50.Fa, 31.15.-p. | ||
Classification: 16.7. | ||
Does the new version supersede the previous version?: yes | ||
Nature of problem: Ionization and x-ray production cross section calculations for ion-atom collisions | ||
Solution method: Numerical integration of form factor using a logarithmic transform and Gaussian quadrature, plus exact integration limits. | ||
Reasons for new version: Increased functionality and new options | ||
Summary of revisions: Option for the united-atom approximation for binding-energy correction.; easier inputting of updated atomic parameters; extension of projectile energy down to eV range; accounting for DHS wave function in K-shell ionization; other miscellaneous changes. | ||
Restrictions: The consumed CPU time increases with the atomic shell (K,L,M), but execution is still very fast | ||
Running time: No change from previous version |
