Abstract [eng] A program library, libang77, for computing pure spin-angular coefficients for any one- and scalar two-particle operator is presented. The method is based on the combination of the second quantization and quasi-spin techniques with angular momentum theory and the method of irreducible tensorial sets. A non-relativistic approach is used, in which relativistic corrections may be included in the Breit–Pauli approximation. This program library, libang77, is integrated into the Atomic Structure Package ATSP2K [ATSP2K, C. Froese Fischer, G. Tachiev, G. Gaigalas, and M.R. Godefroid, Comput. Phys. Commun. (2007). DOI: 10.1016/j.cpc.2007.01.006], but it can be implemented in other program packages too.
