| Version 1.2.3 August 2005 |
Improvements were made to the graphing procedure. |
| Version 1.2.2 April 2000 |
Installation documentation information supplied. |
| Version 1.2.1 October 1999 |
Mislabeled column headings were fixed, and units were added to the spreadsheet (array) output pages. |
| Version 1.2 July 1999 |
On ESTAR, when additional energies are added, the standard grid is restricted to an energy range whose calculations result in less uncertainty. Also, on additional energies, data is rounded to 4 significant figures instead of 5 as was done previously. Note: the data is only accurate to 3 significant figures, though 4 may be useful for interpolation. On ESTAR, ASTAR, and PSTAR, energies are now displayed in exponential form. On ESTAR, the density effect parameter is also displayed in exponential form. New option allows downloading output in spreadsheet (array) form. Source code and executables for version 1.2 made available for downloading. |
| Version 1.1 June 1999 |
Databases made more accessible by implementing W3C Web Accessibility guidelines. This included incorporating different line styles into the graphs to make them usable for those without the ability to see different colors. |
| Version 1.0 October 1998 |
Web program online. |
| Earlier Work January 1993 |
