Calculations for energies, lifetimes, and transition parameters of E1 and E2 transitions in Mg II
The lifetimes for 2p6ns (n = 4–15), 2p6nd (n = 3–15), 2p6ng (n = 5–15), 2p6ni (n = 7–15), 2p6np (n = 3–15), 2p6nf (n = 4–15), 2p6nh (n = 6–15), 2p53s2, 2p53snp (n = 3, 4), 2p53p2, 2p53sns (n = 4, 5), 2p53snd (n = 3, 4), and 2p53s4f configurations and the transition parameters for the electric dipole (E1) and electric quadrupole (E2) transitions between valence excitation levels have been calculated using the relativistic Hartree–Fock method for singly ionized magnesium (Mg II, Z = 12). Comparisons are made with experimental and other available theoretical results to assess the reliability and accuracy of the present calculations. Moreover, some new wavelengths, oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities of E1 and E2 transitions and lifetime values have been obtained using this method. These results are reported for the first time in this work.
