Abstract

We describe the implementation of the current Flexible Atomic Code (FAC) unique electron central potential within the AUTOSTRUCTURE code. We show that the two codes then give the same atomic data for all practical application purposes. However, AUTOSTRUCTURE has more flexible potential options which can lead to a more accurate description of atomic processes, especially in low-charged ions.
