            Bug ID: 345072
           Summary: table of nuclides (german: Isotopentabelle) don't show
                    correkt colors
           Product: kalzium
           Version: 2.4.01
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kalzium at kde.org
          Reporter: mailchrisch at gmail.com

The Table of nuclides is colored in lightgrey with little spots with white, red
or blue.
Refering to the given explanation the isotops in:
lightgrey should be "stable"
red ones should decay emitting a "Alpha"-Particle
blue means "EC"
white ones should decay emitting a "Beta –"-Particle.

This seems very buggy

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Kalzium
2. Klick "Table of Nuclides" / in german: "Isotopentabelle"

Actual Results:  
The colors are totally wrong. There is too much lightgrey and to little yellow
and white.

Expected Results:  
Referring to http://amdc.in2p3.fr/nubase/Nubase2003.pdf -> fig. 6 "Chart of the
nuclides for decay modes", page 16:
1. There should be a small stable band through the middle (lightgrey in Kalzium
colors). Beryllium with 4 protons and 5 neutrons (9 nuclides at all) = Be (4,9)
should be stable, for example, 
2. The upper side (reffering to the kalzium table with the amount of protons on
the x-axis and neutrons on the y-axis) should be "beta –" (white in Kalzium
color-code). For Example  Be (4,10), (4,11) and so on should be "beta –".
3. a very few with less neutrons should be "beta +". (yellow in Kalzium
color-code)

The software should show the right colors for all isoptops. May be the
underlying data is messed up or the datasource is missing in my installation?

You could also reffer to wikipedia: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_nuclides
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Isotope/2._Periode#4_Beryllium

I would rate this "major" because the information is completely wrong and
missleading.
