bh_molecule.constants

Molecular constants for BH A–X system (units: cm^-1).

This module defines a typed container MolecularConstants and the preset parameter sets BH_X (X^1Σ^+) and BH_A (A^1Π).

The field names are explicit for learners (e.g., omega_e_x_e) and come with spectroscopy-friendly aliases (we, wexe, Be, etc.) so both camps are happy.

All values are in wavenumbers (cm^-1). These parameters are intended for rovibronic term-value calculations as used by bh_molecule.physics.BHModel.
