This module specifies properties of individual alkali metals.

If you want to change e.g. coefficients used for model potential, quantum defects, or other numerical values, this is the place to look at.

How to delete precalculated dipole/quadrupole matrix elements values and/or start a new database? To delete precalculated values, simply delete files, whose names are stated in dipoleMatrixElementFile, quadrupoleMatrixElementFile and precalculatedDB variables for the corresponding atom type, from data/ folder. Alternatively, if you want to keep old values, but want to also start completely new calculation of dipole matrix elements (e.g. because you changed parameters of energy levels significantly or model potential parameters), simply set new values for dipoleMatrixElementFile, quadrupoleMatrixElementFile and precalculatedDB variables.

Note that by default isotopes of Rubidium and Potassium are sharing precalculated dipole and quadrupole matrix elements. This is because the small energy level differences typically don’t change this matrix elements within a typical accuracy.
