A capillary pulsed-discharge and a theta-pinch were used to record Kr spectra in the region of 330–4800 Å. A set of 168 transitions of these spectra were classified for the first time. We extended the analysis to twenty-five new energy levels belonging to 3s23p24d, 3s23p25d even configurations. We calculated weighted transition probabilities (gA) for all of the experimentally observed lines and lifetimes for new energy levels using a relativistic Hartree–Fock method, including core-polarization effects.

AbstractA detailed investigation of the energy levels of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic tetraethylester as a representative compound for the whole family of perylene esters was performed. It was revealed via electrochemical measurements that one oxidation and two reductions take place. The bandgaps determined via the electrochemical approach are in good agreement with the optical bandgap obtained from the absorption spectra via a Tauc plot. In addition, absorption spectra in dependence of the electrochemical potential were the basis for extensive quantum-chemical calculations of the neutral, monoanionic, and dianionic molecules. For this purpose, calculations based on density functional theory were compared with post-Hartree–Fock methods and the CAM-B3LYP functional proved to be the most reliable choice for the calculation of absorption spectra. Furthermore, spectral features found experimentally could be reproduced with vibronic calculations and allowed to understand their origins. In particular, the two lowest energy absorption bands of the anion are not caused by absorption of two distinct electronic states, which might have been expected from vertical excitation calculations, but both states exhibit a strong vibronic progression resulting in contributions to both bands.

A pulsed discharge light source to study the six and seven times ionized xenon spectra in the 419–4642 Å region was used. A set of 40 transitions of Xe VII and 25 transitions of Xe VIII were classified for the first time. We revised the values for the previously known energy levels and extended the analysis for Xe VII to 10 new energy levels belonging to 5s6d, 5s7s and 5s7p, 4d95s25p even and odd configurations, respectively. Seven new energy levels of the core excited configuration 4d95s5d of Xe VIII are presented. For the prediction of the atomic parameters, energy levels, and transition, relativistic Hartree–Fock calculations were used.

ABSTRACT Accurate atomic data are essential for opacity calculations and for abundance analyses of the Sun and other stars. The aim of this work is to provide accurate and extensive results of energy levels and transition data for C i–iv. The Multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock and relativistic configuration interaction methods were used in this work. To improve the quality of the wavefunctions and reduce the relative differences between length and velocity forms for transition data involving high Rydberg states, alternative computational strategies were employed by imposing restrictions on the electron substitutions when constructing the orbital basis for each atom and ion. Transition data, for example, weighted oscillator strengths and transition probabilities, are given for radiative electric dipole (E1) transitions involving levels up to 1s22s22p6s for C i, up to 1s22s27f for C ii, up to 1s22s7f for C iii, and up to 1s28g for C iv. Using the difference between the transition rates in length and velocity gauges as an internal validation, the average uncertainties of all presented E1 transitions are estimated to be 8.05 per cent, 7.20 per cent, 1.77 per cent, and 0.28 per cent, respectively, for C i–iv. Extensive comparisons with available experimental and theoretical results are performed and good agreement is observed for most of the transitions. In addition, the C i data were employed in a re-analysis of the solar carbon abundance. The new transition data give a line-by-line dispersion similar to the one obtained when using transition data that are typically used in stellar spectroscopic applications today.

The energy levels of the lower valence and Rydberg states of selenoformaldehyde, CH2Se, have been calculated by the SCF/CI method. Wavefunctions for the ROHF (restricted open shell Hartree–Fock) states were obtained with the Binnings–Curtis double-ζ basis set, augmented with Rydberg and polarization functions. Configuration interaction was applied to the parent configurations, PCMO (parent configuration molecular orbital). Oscillator strengths were evaluated for the allowed electric dipole transitions by the RPA (random phase approximation), and SOPPA (second-order polarization propagator approximation) methods. The spin-orbit contribution to the zero field splitting of the first triplet state, 3A2(n,π*) as well as the oscillator strengths to the three spin components were calculated by perturbation theory. These calculations predict that the Sx, Sy, and Sz components are shifted by −96.091,−96.707, and + 29.167 cm−1, respectively, from their unperturbed position. The oscillator strengths for the three components fx, fy, and fz of the 3A2(n,π*) ← 1A1(g.s.) transition were calculated to be 3.45 × 10−7, 1.15 × 10−7, and 173.0 × 10−7.

Aims. The aim of this work is to present accurate and extensive results of energy spectra and transition data for the S II, Cl III, and Ar IV ions. These data are useful for understanding and probing physical processes and conditions in various types of astrophysical plasmas.Methods. The multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) and relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) methods, which are implemented in the general-purpose relativistic atomic structure package GRASP2K, are used in the present work. In the RCI calculations the transverse-photon (Breit) interaction, the vacuum polarization, and the self-energy corrections are included.Results. Energy spectra are presented comprising the 134, 87, and 103 lowest states in S II, Cl III, and Ar IV, respectively. Energy levels are in very good agreement with NIST database recommended values and associated with smaller uncertainties than energies from other theoretical computations. Electric dipole (E1), magnetic dipole (M1), and electric quadrupole (E2) transition data are computed between the above states together with the corresponding lifetimes. Based on internal validation, transition rates for the majority of the stronger transitions are estimated to have uncertainties of less than 3%.

Structure Calculations

Variational methods are used extensively in the calculation of transition rates for numerous lines in a spectrum. In the GRASP code, solutions of the multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) equations that optimize the orbitals are represented by numerical values on a grid using finite differences for integration and differentiation. The numerical accuracy and efficiency of existing procedures are evaluated and some modifications proposed with heavy elements in mind.
