We would like to announce the release of Version 3.03 of the CHIANTI database for astrophysical spectroscopy. This now extends the database to include the 1 - 50 wavelength region. The additions to the database are described in a paper `CHIANTI - an atomic database for emission lines, IV - Extension to X-ray Wavelengths' by K.P. Dere, E. Landi, G. Del Zanna, and P.R. Young and accepted for publication by the Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series. ... Atomic Data Updates (April 30, 2001) . ...

... Previous: Accessing Astronomical Data over the WWW using datOZ . ... Robust, distributed searching of networked-based astronomical databases requires an investment not only by individual data providers, but also by the astronomical community as a whole. ...
