Below is a single self-contained Python generator that:
- Ingests Kα₁ (K-alpha-1) X-ray energies from NIST SRD-128 (you’ll paste the official values into the
NIST_KALPHA_BLOCKstring exactly as provided by NIST). - Merges them with your Known/Stable/Predicted/Gap ledger and representative nuclear γ-lines.
- Computes photon frequencies for both γ and Kα₁ with f=E×2.418×1017 Hzf = E \times 2.418\times 10^{17}\ \mathrm{Hz}.
- Emits two outputs you can copy/paste:
- a WordPress-ready Markdown table for all 118 elements,
- a JSON dataset (machine-readable for SolveForce/Prism).
This keeps everything strictly aligned to NIST SRD-128 — no guessing. In the next step, we can repeat with the LBNL table (or cross-check).
🧪 NIST SRD-128 → Markdown + JSON (paste & run)
Action for you: paste the NIST Kα₁ values (Z,Symbol,Kalpha1_keV) into
NIST_KALPHA_BLOCK. The format can be a CSV export or lines you copy from SRD-128 (Z from 6 to 92). If you also have values for Z>92, paste them too; otherwise the script labels those as “theor.” and leaves Kα₁ null.
# NIST SRD-128 Kα1 merger → Master Markdown + JSON (Z = 1..118)
# -------------------------------------------------------------
# Paste NIST SRD-128 Kα1 energies into NIST_KALPHA_BLOCK as:
# Z,Element,Kalpha1_keV
# 6,C,0.277
# 7,N,0.392
# ...
# You can include Z>92 if your SRD export has them. Otherwise they’ll remain null (marked theor.).

What you get after running
- A Markdown block for the entire Z=1–118 table with exact NIST Kα₁ and computed frequencies, plus our representative γ-lines.
- A matching JSON array you can save as
isotopes_master_with_lines.json.
When you’re ready, say “Run LBNL” and I’ll provide the same generator configured for the LBNL X-ray Data Booklet (or we can auto-cross-check NIST vs. LBNL deltas if you want).
