Energies, wavelengths, lifetimes, oscillator strengths, electric dipole (E1), electric quadrupole (E2), magnetic dipole (M1), and magnetic quadrupole (M2) transition rates among the 42 fine structure levels belonging to the 3s23p4, 3s23p33d, and 3s3p5 configurations for S-like Fe and S-like ions with 41 ≤ Z ≤ 49 are calculated using the fully relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac–Fock (MCDF) method. In the calculations, contributions from correlations within the n = 6 complex, Breit interaction, and quantum electrodynamics effects are included. Detailed comparisons are made between the present results and the available experimental and other theoretical data. We found that our calculated energy levels generally agree within ≤0.5% with the experimentally compiled results, and the transition rates agree within ≤12% with other theoretical results for a majority of the transitions. These accurate theoretical data should be beneficial in fusion plasma research and astrophysical applications.

This chapter begins by expressing the multipole expansion of the dynamic vector potential A ( r, t) in terms of electric and magnetic multipole moments. Differentiation of A ( r, t) leads directly to the fields E ( r, t) and B ( r, t), which have a component transporting energy away from the sources to infinity. This component is called electromagnetic radiation and it arises only when electric charges experience an acceleration. A range of questions deal with the various types of radiation, including electric dipole and magnetic dipole–electric quadrupole. Larmor’s formula is applied in both its non-relativistic and relativistic forms. Also considered are some applications involving antennas, antenna arrays and the scattering of radiation by a free electron.

The decay by magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole (M1 and E2) transitions of the 2s22p2 1D2 level in the ground complex of the C-like ion Si8+ and the 2s22p4 1D2 level in the O-like ion Si6+ have been optically observed with ions circulating in a storage ring. The measured natural level lifetimes of (38.3 ± 0.3) ms for Si8+ and (636 ± 0.7) ms for Si6+ corroborate theoretical data for such forbidden decays in multicharged ions of astrophysical interest.

A review is given of the forbidden ( more precisely: perturbation allowed) transistions between molecular vibrational-rotational states including transistions which are induced by the electric dipole and quadrupole moments and the magnetic dipole moment. The basic theory of these transistions is outlined starting with the overall symmetry selection rules, followed by the discussion of the spin statistics isomers, approximate selection rules for the usual vibrational-rotational transistions, and forbidden transistions induced by the electric quadrupole and magnetic dipole moments. Forbidden transistions due to the vibrationally and rotationally induced electric dipole moments are the discussed in detail for symmetric top and spherical top molecules with the emphasis on the physical nature of the various phenomena leading to these transistions. A summary is also given of the most important experimental work on the forbidden transistions in diatomic molecules and polar as well as nonpolar polyatomics.
