Multiconfiguration Hartree-fock Calculations and Time-resolved Laser Spectroscopy Studies of Hyperfine-structure Constants In Sodium

• Hyperfine structure constants for the ground and first excited states of sodium are calculated using a newly written hyperfine structure program, which is part of the MCHF Atomic Structure Package. The calculated hyperfine structure constants are compared with the most reliable values obtained in other theoretical studies and in experiments. Also, a new accurate experimental determination of the 3p P-2(1/2) state hyperfine structure is presented.
