Abstract: The goal of this thesis is to develop a simulation tool for the calculation and visualization of the multiplet structure of all atoms across the periodic table. The starting point are self- consistent calculations in the spherical-potential approximation. For the resulting atomic levels we calculate the ab-initio Slater parameters that define the electron-electron repulsion term of the many-body Hamiltonian. We then construct the eigen-states of the Hamiltonian on an open shell by constructing the multiplet states using the angular momentum ladder operators and, where necessary, seniority. Finally, we include spin-orbit coupling, using the ab-initio coupling constants determined from the self-consistent radial potentials.
