Description
H2DBLAB is a Matlab companion to the H2db code [1], a package that
solves for the wavefunctions and eigenergies of the hydrogen atom in
a magnetic field. H2DBLAB contains matlab scripts for importing the
wavefunctions and calculating matrix elements. There are also
functions for correlating the high field and low field quantum
numbers. The software is developed on Mac OS, but should work also on
Linux. Small changes may need to be made for compatibility with
Windows OS.

The included fortran h2db code is almost identical to that provided
by Schimeczek et. al. [1]. However, small modifications from the
provided code were made in order to create the 'savewavefunction.f90'
and 'zerofieldquantumnumbers.f90' scripts.

These functions have been tested extensively, but no gaurantee is
made to their accuracy. The accuracy of calculated matrix elements
depends on the size of the rho-z mesh used.

To run, also install DGradient, available at:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/29887-dgradient

Executables were created using 64-bit Mac OS X, and can either be
generated yourself or downloaded from my personal website
(www.toddkarin.com/code), and add to the h2dblab directory.
