Electric dipole,quadrupole, and magnetic dipole transition probabilities of ions isoelectronic to the first-row atoms,Li through F

Theoretical wavelengths, oscillator strengths, line strengths, and transition probabilities for the E1, M1, and E2 transitions among states with 2sⁿ2p^m configurations are presented for ions isoelectronic to the first-row atoms (Li through F). All ions up to Zn (Z = 30) and representative ions for Z > 30 are included. The multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock technique was used to calculate necessary energy levels and wave functions. All configurations within the n = 2 complex are included to account for electron correlations and intermediate coupling. In addition to relativistic effects arising from the Dirac Hamiltonian and the Breit operator, we included the Lamb shifts of the $\text{1s}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$, $\text{2s}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$, and $\text{2p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ electrons.     

Theoretical energy level spectra and transition data for 4p4d, 4p4d4f,and 4p4d configurations of W

The ab initio   quasirelativistic Hartree–Fock method developed specifically for the calculation of spectral parameters of heavy atoms and highly charged ions is used to derive transition data for a multicharged tungsten ion. The configuration interaction method is applied to include electron correlation effects. The relativistic effects are taken into account in the Breit–Pauli approximation for quasirelativistic Hartree–Fock radial orbitals. The energy level spectra, radiative lifetimes and Lande g$g$-factors are calculated for the 4p⁶4d², 4p⁶4d4f, and 4p⁵4d³ configurations of the ion W³⁶⁺. The transition wavelengths, spontaneous transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, and line strengths for the electric dipole, electric quadrupole, electric octupole, and magnetic dipole transitions among the levels of these configurations are tabulated.     

Theoretical transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, and radiative lifetimes of levels in Pb IV

Transition probabilities and oscillator strengths of 176 spectral lines with astrophysical interest arising from 5d¹⁰ns (n = 7,8), 5d¹⁰np (n = 6,7), 5d¹⁰nd (n = 6,7), 5d¹⁰5f, 5d¹⁰5g, 5d¹⁰nh (n =  6,7,8), 5d⁹6s², and 5d⁹6s6p configurations, and radiative lifetimes for 43 levels of Pb IV, have been calculated. These values were obtained in intermediate coupling (IC) and using relativistic Hartree-Fock calculations including core-polarization effects. For the IC calculations, we use the standard method of least-square fitting from experimental energy levels by means of the Cowan computer code. The inclusion in these calculations of the 5d¹⁰7p and 5d¹⁰5f configurations has facilitated a complete assignment of the energy levels in the Pb IV. Transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, and radiative lifetimes obtained are generally in good agreement with the experimental data.     

Electric-dipole allowed and intercombination transitions among the 3d, 3d4s and 3d4p levels of Fe IV

Oscillator strengths and transition rates for the electric-dipole (E1) allowed and intercombination transitions among 3d⁵, 3d⁴4s and 3d⁴4p levels of Fe IV are calculated using the CIV3 code of Hibbert and coworkers. Using the Hartree-Fock functions up to 3d orbitals we have also optimized 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f, 5s, 5p and 5d orbitals of which 4s and 4p are taken to be spectroscopic and the remaining orbitals represent corrections to the spectroscopic orbitals or the correlation effects. The J-dependent levels of 108 LS states are included in the calculation and the relativistic effects are accounted for via the Breit-Pauli operator. Configurations are chosen in two steps: (a) two promotions were allowed from the 3p, 3d, 4s and 4p subshells, using all the orbitals; and (b) selective promotions from the 3s subshell are included, but only to the 3s and 4s orbitals. The ab initio fine-structure levels are then fine tuned to reproduce observed energy levels as closely as possible, and the resulting wavefunctions are used to calculate oscillator strengths and transition rates for all possible E1 transitions. For many of these transitions, the present results show good agreement between the length and velocity forms while for some transitions, some large disagreements are found with other available results. The complete list of weighted oscillator strengths, transition rates, and line strengths for transitions among the fine structure levels of the three lowest configurations are presented in ascending order of wavelength.     

Relativistic energy levels, lifetimes, and transition probabilities for the sodium-like to argon-like sequences

Energy levels, lifetimes, and transition probabilities for transitions between computed levels are reported for the Na-like (Z = 11, … , 26) to Ar-like (Z = 18, … , 30) sequences. Several methods have been used—non-orthogonal spline CI, multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock (MCHF), and also multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock (MCDHF). The first two methods included relativistic effects through the Breit-Pauli Hamiltonian, omitting only the orbit-orbit interaction. Both allowed (E1) and some forbidden (M1, E2, M2, E3) transitions are reported.     

Theoretical energy level spectra and transition data for 4p4d, 4p4f and 4p4d configurations of W ion

The ab initio quasirelativistic Hartree-Fock method developed specifically for the calculation of spectral parameters of heavy atoms and highly charged ions was applied to determine atomic data for tungsten ions. The correlation effects were included by adopting the configuration interaction method. The Breit-Pauli approximation for quasirelativistic Hartree-Fock radial orbitals was employed to take into account relativistic effects. The energy level spectra, radiative lifetimes, Lande factors g were calculated for the 4p⁶4d, 4p⁶4f and 4p⁵4d² configurations of W³⁷⁺ ion. The atomic data, namely, the transition wavelengths, spontaneous emission rates and oscillator strengths for the electric dipole, electric quadrupole and magnetic dipole transitions among and within the levels of these configurations are tabulated.     

Fine-structure calculations of energy levels,oscillator strengths,and transition probabilities for sulfur-like iron,Fe XI

Energy levels, oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities for transitions among the 14 LS states belonging to configurations of sulfur-like iron, Fe XI, have been calculated. These states are represented by configuration interaction wavefunctions and have configurations 3s²3p⁴, 3s3p⁵, 3s²3p³3d, 3s²3p³4s, 3s²3p³4p, and 3s²3p³4d, which give rise to 123 fine-structure energy levels. Extensive configuration interaction calculations using the CIV3 code have been performed. To assess the importance of relativistic effects, the intermediate coupling scheme by means of the Breit–Pauli Hamiltonian terms, such as the one-body mass correction and Darwin term, and spin–orbit, spin–other-orbit, and spin–spin corrections, are incorporated within the code. These incorporations adjusted the energy levels, therefore the calculated values are close to the available experimental data. Comparisons between the present calculated energy levels as well as oscillator strengths and both experimental and theoretical data have been performed. Our results show good agreement with earlier works, and they might be useful in thermonuclear fusion research and astrophysical applications.     

Weighted f-values, A-values, and line strengths for the E1 transitions among 3d, 3d4s, and 3d4p levels of Fe III

Weighted oscillator strengths, weighted radiative rates, and line strengths for all the E1 transitions between 285 fine-structure levels belonging to the 3d⁶, 3d⁵4s, and 3d⁵4p configurations of Fe III are presented, in ascending order of wavelength. Calculations have been undertaken using the general configuration interaction (CI) code CIV3. The large configuration set is constructed by allowing single and double replacements from any of 3d⁶, 3d⁵4s, 3d⁵4p, and 3d⁵4d configurations to nl orbitals with n?5,l?3 as well as 6p. Additional selective promotions from 3s and 3p subshells are also included in the CI expansions to incorporate the important correlation effects in the n=3 shell. Results of some strong transitions between levels of 3d⁶, 3d⁵4s, and 3d⁵4p configurations are also presented and compared with other available calculations. It is found that large disagreements occur in many transitions among the existing calculations.

We have calculated fine-structure energy levels, oscillator strengths and transition probabilities for transitions among the terms belonging to the 1s²2s²2p⁶ns (²S), 1s²2s²2p⁶np (²P), 1s²2s²2p⁶nd (²D) (n = 3, 4, 5), and 1s²2s²2p⁶nf (²F) (n = 4, 5) configurations. The calculations are based upon the general configuration-interaction code CIV3 of Hibbert which uses orthonormal orbitals of radial functions expressed as superpositions of normalized Slater-type orbitals. Our calculated values are compared with experimental and other theoretical results where a satisfactory agreement is found. We also report on some unpublished energy values and oscillator strengths.

Transition probabilities for 5s-5p, 5p-5d, 4f-5d, and 5d-5f transitions in Ag-like ions with Z = 50-86

The wavelengths, electric dipole transition probabilities, and oscillator strengths are calculated for transitions between low-lying states (5s-5p, 5p-5d, 4f-5d, and 5d-5f) in the silver isoelectronic sequence (50 ? Z ? 86) using relativistic perturbation theory with a zero-approximation model potential. The results are compared with the corresponding data of the relativistic Hartree-Fock theory and the relativistic many-body perturbation theory. The results of these three theoretical approaches are compared with available experimental data for the level lifetimes. Possible reasons for some disagreements are discussed.     

The study of reduced transition probabilities for E2 transitions in the decays of Os and Pt nuclei

The ratios of E2 transition rates, i.e., B(E2; I_i − I_f)/B(E2; I_i − I_f) were computed for gamma to ground state band transitions in ¹⁹²Os and ¹⁹²Pt. The reduced transition probabilities for the E2 transitions evaluated on the basis of Interacting Boson Approximation (IBA-I) model and those measured experimentally are compared. The SU(3) symmetry of IBA-I is not strictly obeyed by the nuclei in which T(E2; I_i − I_f) transitions are observed, i.e., the symmetry SU(3) is broken. The percentage sum coincidence corrections are applied to marginalise contributions from crossover transitions and the intensities of affected transitions are found to agree fairly well with earlier sum peak method applications to the decay of ¹⁹²Ir.
