Acknowledgments

The very first MCTDH program was written by Uwe Manthe as part of his PhD work in Heidelberg. This was put together as the Heidelberg MCTDH Package by Hans-Dieter Meyer, Graham Worth, Andreas Jäckle and Michael Beck. Over the years several graduate students, post-docs and visitors made contributions to the MCTDH package. In chronological order:

M. Ehara, M.-C. Heitz, A. Raab, S. Wefing, S. Sukiasyan, C. Cattarius, F. Gatti, F. Otto, M. Nest, A. Markmann, M. R. Brill, O. Vendrell, M. Schröder, D. Pelaez-Ruiz, Phillip S. Thomas, Ying-Chih Chiang, and David Mendive-Tapia

The first version of the Heidelberg ML-MCTDH code was written by Oriol Vendrell in 2011.

We are very, very grateful to all of them!
