A program for computing autoionization properties

Summary, in English

A program for computing atomic autoionization widths, decay rates and lifetimes is presented as a new part of the MCHF atomic structure package. The method used is based on the ''configuration interaction in the continuum'' theory by Fano, in which the continuum is computed independently of the discrete part and the width is given by the ''Golden Rule'' formula. The program allows for correlation in the discrete part of the atomic state function and in the target, through multiconfiguration expansions, but is restricted to only one continuum function.
