Usage

import the package：

import * as allIso from 'all-isotopes';

(1) get all isotopes:

console.log(allIso.isotopes);
output:
[
  {
    "atomic_number": 1,
    "element": "H",
    "isotopes": [
      {
        "mass_number": 1,
        "nuclide": "H-1",
        "mass": 1.00782503223,
        "abundance": 0.999885
      },
      {
        "mass_number": 2,
        "nuclide": "H-2",
        "mass": 2.01410177812,
        "abundance": 0.000115
      },
  ...
]

(2) get info by element's symbol:

const DsInfo = allIso.elements.Ds;
or
const DsInfo = allIso.getInfoByElement('Ds');
console.log(DsInfo);
output:
{
  "atomic_number": 110,
  "element": "Ds",
  "isotopes": [
    {
      "mass_number": 267,
      "nuclide": "Ds-267",
      "mass": 267.14377,
      "abundance": 0
    },   
    ...
}

(3) or get info by atomic number:

const infoByNumber2 = allIso.numbers[2];
or
const infoByNumber2 = allIso.getInfoByAtomicNumber(2);
console.log(infoByNumber2);

(4) get categorized isotopes by element symbol:

const isoOfLi = allIso.categorizeByElement('Li');
console.log(isoOfLi);
output:
{
  "stable":[
    {
    "atomic_number": 3,
    "element": "Li",
    "mass_number": 6,
    "nuclide": "Li-6",
    "mass": 6.0151228874,
    "abundance": 0.0759
    },
  ...
  ],
  "unstable":[
    {
    "atomic_number": 3,
    "element": "Li",
    "mass_number": 3,
    "nuclide": "Li-3",
    "mass": 3.0308,
    "abundance": 0
    },
  ... 
  ]  
... 
}

(5) or get categorized isotopes by atomic number

const isoOfNumber5 = allIso.categorizeByAtomicNumber(5);
console.log(isoOfNumber5);

Data

The data for this package comes from NIST and was retrieved on Sep 23th, 2023. The "Linearized ASCII Output" for all elements and all isotopes can be found in NIST_DATA.dat. The script generate_all.mjs can be used to regenerate the allIsotopes.json file which contains the isotopic distribution data. The development dependencies must be installed before running generate_all.mjs.
