National Nuclear Data Center (NNDC)
"...collects, evaluates, and disseminates nuclear physics data for basic nuclear research and for applied nuclear technologies. The NNDC is a worldwide resource for nuclear data."
- Brookhaven National Laboratory

Nuclear Data Viewer
"This nuclear data viewer allows you to prepare high-quality Postscript graphs of experimental data (CSISRS) and/or evaluated data (ENDF, FENDL, etc.) from our built-in data bases and view them on your work station or print them on your printer."
Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)

Nuclear Properties for Astrophysics
"Interactive access to nuclear properties of interest for astrophysics for almost 9000 nuclei. Get your experimental masses and calculated masses, deformations, decay Q-values, half-lives, spins, and separation energies here!"
By P. Mˆller, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)

T-2 (Nuclear Theory and Applications) Nuclear Information Service
"We work on nuclear modeling, nuclear data, cross sections, nuclear masses, ENDF, NJOY data processing, nuclear astrophysics, radioactivity, radiation shielding, data for medical radiotherapy, data for high-energy accelerator applications, data and codes for fission and fusion systems, and more. Much of this information can also be accessed using anonymous ftp."
