Herein we describe
Hyperion
, a new program for computing
relativistic picture-change-corrected magnetic resonance parameters
from scalar relativistic active space wave functions, with or without
spin–orbit coupling (SOC) included
a posteriori
.
Hyperion
also includes a new orbital decomposition method
for assisting active space selection for calculations of hyperfine
coupling. For benchmarking purposes, we determine hyperfine coupling
constants of selected alkali metal, transition metal, and lanthanide
atoms, based on complete active space self-consistent field spin–orbit
calculations in OpenMolcas. Our results are in excellent agreement
with experimental data from atomic spectroscopy as well as theoretical
predictions from four-component relativistic calculations.
