Wrong principal quantum numbers for Cs/Ba

Open marcelmbn opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

The principal quantum numbers in the following files are incorrect for caesium and barium as they refer to the 5s/5p shell instead of the 6s/6p shell (probably they were copied from Rb/Sr, but not modified). However, direct change of these numbers would lead to consequences for the parameterization.
