The program LOPT for least-squares optimization of energy levels

Abstract
The article describes a program that solves the least-squares optimization problem for finding the energy levels of a quantum-mechanical system based on a set of measured energy separations or wavelengths of transitions between those energy levels, as well as determining the Ritz wavelengths of transitions and their uncertainties. The energy levels are determined by solving the matrix equation of the problem, and the uncertainties of the Ritz wavenumbers are determined from the covariance mat...

Catalogue Id: AEHM_v1_0

Nature of problem
The least-squares energy-level optimization problem, i.e., finding a set of energy level values that best fits the given set of transition intervals.
