Detailed Description

A MassObject corresponds to a line in the mass.mas03 file.

Author:

Rikard Lundmark

Note:

Only real nucleids (that is, not for example neutrons and protons) can be mass objects).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MassObject::MassObject

(

string

massString

)

Creates the MassObject from a line in the mass.mas03 file.

Parameters:

massString

The string to construct the MassObject from. This string must be a valid line >40 in the mass.mas03 file (not neutron or proton or such either).
