Resumo: | We present a computer program to calculate the quantised rotational and hyperfine energy levels of diatomic molecules in the presence of dc electric, dc magnetic, and off-resonant optical fields. Our program is applicable to the bialkali molecules used in ongoing state-of-the-art experiments with ultracold molecular gases. We include functions for the calculation of space-fixed electric dipole moments, magnetic moments and transition dipole moments.

Nature of problem: </i>Calculation of the rotational and hyperfine structure of molecules in the presence of dc magnetic, dc electric, and off-resonant laser fields.
<br><i>
Solution method: </i>A matrix representation of the Hamiltonian is constructed in the uncoupled basis set. Eigenstates and eigenenergies are calculated by numerical diagonalization of the Hamiltonian.
