Subject: atomic process cross section data

What are good sources of cross section data for atomic processes (ionisation,
excitation, Penning, charge exchange)?

Here is what I found:

I have come across the Oak Ridge depository with the Aladdin program and
databases (vintage fortran programming :-)). There is a french cite (Gaphyr
or something like that with references) and something called ADAS in england
(great britain?) for UNIX/IDL. I did not decipher that one yet, (some files
were not available) and would appreciate an elucidation if possible.

It is somewhat ironic that most of these cites are fusion funded (oak ridge
in particular). It will be a sad day if they fold.

tia (and go, go, go tftr!!! great work)
