Abstract

The program FITTER, which has been used successfully for many years to analyze the hyperfine structure in atomic and ionic spectra, has been extended. Confidence intervals for all adjusted parameters are now calculated, adding essential information to the results. A brief overview of the theoretical basics of hyperfine structure is given, the calculation of the confidence intervals is presented and the application is discussed using an example.
