Databases for Atomic, Molecular & Optical Physics Research

	AMO Physics Databases

Adapted from a master index by Yuri Ralchenko at the Weizmann Institute.
There are review papers on these databases by
Ralchenko (01/96) and by Schultz (12/97) (zipped Acrobat format).

Also see our list of Other AMO Labs, the research resources in our Useful Web Links,
Sheffield's Periodic Table and Brookhaven's Chart of the Nuclides, or
