All of this data was taken from the Special Feature section of neutron scattering lengths and cross sections of the elements and their isotopes in Neutron News, Vol. 3, No. 3, 1992, pp. 29-37.

The contents of the columns are as follows:

Column	Unit	Quantity
1	---	Isotope
2	---	Natural abundance (For radioisotopes the half-life is given instead)
3	fm	bound coherent scattering length
4	fm	bound incoherent scattering length
5	barn	bound coherent scattering cross section
6	barn	bound incoherent scattering cross section
7	barn	total bound scattering cross section
8	barn	absorption cross section for 2200 m/s neutrons

Note: 1fm=1E-15 m, 1barn=1E-24 cm^2, scattering lengths and cross sections in parenthesis are uncertainties.
