BSR: B-spline atomic R-matrix codes

BSR is a general program to calculate atomic continuum processes using the B-spline R-matrix method, including electron–atom and electron–ion scattering, and radiative processes such as bound–bound transitions, photoionization and polarizabilities. The calculations can be performed in LS-coupling or in an intermediate-coupling scheme by including terms of the Breit–Pauli Hamiltonian.New version program summaryTitle of program: BSRCatalogue identifier: ADWYProgram summary URL:http://cpc.cs.qub.ac.uk/summaries/ADWYProgram obtainable from: CPC Program Library, Queen's University of Belfast, N.
