AMNS Documentation
The AMNS library is meant to be called by Work Package codes if the codes need
data for Atomic, Molecular, Nuclear or Surface processes. The calling
sequence is described in more detail below, but the basic idea is: (1)
initialize the package; (2) request data for a particular reaction by
initializing a "table" for that reaction; (3) (repeatedly) requesting data for
that reaction as a fuction of plasma or other parameters; (4) finishing with
the table; and (5) finishing with the AMNS library.
The actual AMNS data is provided by CPOs stored under the "amns" tokamak and
will first be searched for in the user's database, and if not found there, the
system will default to obtaining the data from the public AMNS database.
Multiple versions of the AMNS data are possible: in 4.09a and 4.09b this was
done via a mysql database; in 4.10a and later this is done by having an index
block stored in shot 0, run 1 of the AMNS CPO.
