Classes

class synthesizer.abundances.elements.Elements(non_metals=<factory>, metals=<factory>, alpha_elements=<factory>, name=<factory>, atomic_mass=<factory>)

This is a data class containing a various useful information about atomic elements. These include lists of elements classified as non-metals, metals , alpha elements, as well as all elements. Also contains a dictionary mapping the element identification (e.g. “Fe”) to the full name (e.g. “iron”) and a dictionary containing the atomic mass. These are used in the creation of custom abundance patterns.
