Abstract

The hyperfine structure constants for the 1s22s22p3 -4So ground state in nitrogen and the 1s22s22p33s5So excited state in oxygen are calculated using the MCHF Atomic Structure Package. The single excitation picture is explored through the use of compact wave functions allowing radial non-orthogonalities. Electron correlation is described through numerical multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock calculations for configuration expansions obtained by allowing all single and double excitations from the reference configuration to an active set of orbitals. The latter is increased in a systematic way allowing the convergence of the hyperfine parameters to be studied. Three- and four-particle effects are shown to be important and are taken into account in a sequence of large configuration interaction calculations. The final results are in good agreement with experiment.
