Literature data on lithium, especially its vapor

Lithium vapor data

This python module contains various data useful for physical modeling of lithium, especially neutral lithium vapor.

It has data on

• Vapor pressure
• Vapor viscosity
• Vapor thermal conductivity
• Vapor self-diffusivity

as functions of temperature, each from a variety of sources. If you find sources in the literature not listed here, I'd be interested to incorporate them!

It also contains functions to calculate

• Equilibrium vapor flux (Langmuir flux)
• Surface tension

And for convenience, provides basic data on

• (averaged) Li atomic mass
• Heat of vaporization

This module is most concerned with temperatures from 300 K to 1500 K.

Multiple sources from the literature are included wherever possible. (Nearly) All data sources are cited.
