Set here the atom properties.
Mass
The 
Mass entry sets the atomic mass. The default value is the so called
atomic weight, the average of all naturally occurring isotopes, weighted by 
their natural abundances, or, when these do not exist, the isotope with a longer 
half-life time (not necessarily the easiest to synthetize and more common).
Mass must always be positive (for dummy atoms, 
Du, the default is
the H value).  All elements have a known mass.
To define new default values, select 
Atom->Config (check 
Help->Interfaces->Atom->Config) or import XML configuration 
files (check 
Help->Formats->Atom->Config).
Pressing 
List, a new dialog shows a list with the more important
isotope mass information, taken from 
http://www.wikipedia.com/, after comparison with other sources.
This list contains all naturally occurring isotopes, with their relative abundances, 
plus all the isotopes with a half-life longer than one year (all elements until 
Cf except At, Rn, Fr), or, when these do not exist, one day (Rn, plus Es, Fm, Md), 
one hour (At, Lr, Rf, Db), one minute (Fr, No, Sg) or one second (Bh, Hs, Mt, Ds, Rg).
Some isotopes have both a natural abundance and a half life decay, necessarily very 
long. Some isotopes correspond to excited states (Rh, Ag, Sn, Ta, Re, Ir, Bi, Am).
Abundances are given in percentages, half-lifes are given in years 
y,
days 
d, hours 
h, minutes 
m and seconds 
s. Isotopes
that exist in the excited state are signaled with an asterisk.
Radius
The 
Radius entry sets the atomic radius. The default values are the
effective covalent radius. Radius must always be positive (for dummy atoms, 
Du, the default is the H value). Some elements do not have a known 
radius: Pm, At, Rn, Fr, Es, Fm, Md, No, Lr, Rf, Db, Sg, Bh, Hs, Mt, Ds, Rg.
In this case, the default comes from the nearest element, with a smaller atomic 
number, with a known radius. Atomic radius are also used to define default 
minimum and maximum distance limits for bond creation, as discussed in 
Bond->Create.
To define new default values, select 
Atom->Config (check 
Help->Interfaces->Atom->Config) or import XML configuration files 
(check 
Help->Formats->Atom->Config).
Pressing 
List, a new dialog shows a list with the more important
radius data, taken from 
http://www.webelements.com/ (where the original publications are 
referenced), except the ionic radius, taken directly from Shannon's
paper, Acta Cryst. A32, 751 (1976). The radius listed are:
1) Half distance between atoms in its element natural state,
(most from L.E. Sutton (Ed.), Table of interatomic distances
and configuration in molecules and ions, Supplement 1956-1959,
Special publication No. 18, Chemical Society, London, UK,
1965.). Available up to Cf (98), except Pm, At, Rn, Fr.
 
2) Effective atomic (from J.C. Slater, J. Chem. Phys. 1964, 39,
3199), empirically derived by comparison of bond lengths in over
1200 bond types in ionic, metallic, and covalent crystals and
molecules. Available up to Am (95) except He, Ne, Kr, Xe, At,
Rn, Fr.
 
3) Calculated atomic (from E. Clementi, D.L.Raimondi, and W.P.
Reinhardt, J. Chem. Phys. 1963, 38, 2686), obtained from SCF
ab-initio calculations. Available up to Rn (86) except La, Ce.
 
4) Effective covalent (including from R.T. Sanderson in Chemical
Periodicity, Reinhold, New York, USA, 1962.), empirically obtained
by comparing distances between single-bonded equal atoms. Available
for all elements up to La (57), plus Lu (71) to Bi (83) plus Rn.
 
5) Calculated covalent, (from Beatriz Cordero et al, in "Covalent
radii revisited", Dalton Trans., 2008), arguably more consistent
than the effective covalent radius. Available up to Cm (96). For C,
there are radius available for sp3, sp2 and sp hybridization. For
Mn, Fe, Co there are radius available for low (LS) and high (HS)
spin configurations.                                           
 
6) Van der Waals (mainly from A. Bondi, J. Phys. Chem., 1964, 68,
441.), established from contact distances between non-bonding atoms
in touching molecules or atoms. 
7) Ionic effective (from R.D. Shannon, Acta Cryst. A32, 751, 1976.),
empirically derived from about 1000 distances, taken mainly from
oxide and fluoride structures, plus a range of correlations. These
radius are a function of valence, coordination, mass (for H) and
low (LS) and high (HS) electronic spin (for Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni).
Available for all elements up to Cf (98) expect He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Rn.
 
To get the so-called ionic crystalline radius, suggested by Fumi 
and Tosi and published also by Shannon, just sum 0.14 to the cation
and subtract 0.14 to the anion, so the cation-anion distance remain
unchanged. According to Shannon, it is felt that these crystal radii
correspond more closely to the physical size of ions in a solid.
However, they might less efective in predicting the cation
coordination by using Pauling's first rule.
Charge
The 
Charge entry sets the atomic charge. The default is 
0.0.
but all real values are valid. The most common way to use charges is to 
attribute previously calculated values to different atoms, construct atomic 
structures with these atoms, and then export these structures to files,
to feed Molecular Mechanics programs requiring charge potentials.
