Simulation of hydrogenic atoms

This software is used in Quantum Chemistry course in University of Buenos Aires. For more reference, go to the webpage [in Spanish!]. It ports a numerical solution for central potentials as described in Salvat and Mayol, Comp. Phys. Comm. 62 (65) 1991

DISCLAIMER: The files here do not follow any guideline respecting to the usual python module distribution. It is done so in purpose, so students know what the sources are.

Installation

After downloading the package, go to src/ folder and run make library

cd src/
make library

Running

In the root folder of the project, there is an example called hydrogen.py that calculates some bound states for the hydrogen atom in the un-screened case. You can (and should) take a look at its source code and modify it properly.

Help

The file atomic.py has the help embedded in the docstrings

Another way

In order to keep the previous format working, you can also build the old (and less user friendly) executable file with:

cd src/
make executable

After that, you can run the file ./hydrogenic.e and work with the executable file directly. Keep in mind that if you do that, you'll have to manually extract all info like the wavefunction and the energy. We insist on not using this file, except it is strictly necessary.
