Rci-Q: an improved QED correction model for the GRASP2018 package
Abstract
The Rci-Q package is an extension to the GRASP2018 suite, improving the model of estimating the quantum-electrodynamics corrections to the energy levels. The Flambaum-Ginges radiative potential method is used to estimate the leading self-energy correction to electron energy in many electron atoms. The new fitting prefactors to parameterize radiative potential are presented. The correction to self-energy originating from finite nucleus size is included. The Wichmann-Kroll part of the vacuum polarization potential is also implemented.
