Electron Paramagnetic Resonance A-tensor

Documentation on the molecular calculation of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) hyperfine coupling constants (A-tensors) using relativistic Kramers-unrestricted density functional theory. In the current version of ReSpect, the methodology can be combined with the 4C Hamiltonian.
