We have reported a relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) study on low-lying level structures of protactinium IV (Z =91) and uranium V (Z =92) ions. Excitation energies and electric dipole (E1) transition parameters (wavelengths, oscillator strengths, and transition rates) for these low-lying levels have been given. We have also investigated the influence of the transverse Breit and quantum electrodynamic (QED) contributions besides correlation effects on the level structure. A comparison has been made with a few available data for these ions in the literature.

Using the general-purpose relativistic atomic structure package (GRASP) based on a fully relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac–Fock (MCDF) method, the transition parameters, such as transition rates (probabilities), oscillator strengths, and line strengths for the electric dipole transitions between low-lying levels are evaluated for doubly ionized krypton, xenon, and radon. Breit interactions for relativistic effects and quantum electrodynamical (QED) contributions besides valence and valence–core correlation effects are taken into account in calculations. We compare the results obtained with the available data in the literature and discuss them, when possible.

We have reported energies and electric dipole transition parameters, such as transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, line strengths, and wavelengths for Na-like gold (Au68+, Z = 79) using AUTOSTRUCTURE atomic code. Calculations include Breit and QED contributions besides correlation effects. A few of the results have been compared with available theoretical and experimental results in the literature. Our atomic structure data for sodium-like gold are in good agreement with others. Also we have presented new results for electric dipole transitions in sodium-like gold.

Energies of [Kr]4d94f2, [Kr]4d94f5l, and [Kr]4d95l5l′ states (with l = s, p, d, f) for Ag-like ions with Z = 50–100 are evaluated to second order in relativistic many-body perturbation theory (RMBPT) starting from a Pd-like Dirac–Fock potential ([Kr]4d10). Second-order Coulomb and Breit–Coulomb interactions are included. Correction for the frequency dependence of the Breit interaction is taken into account in lowest order. The Lamb-shift correction to energies is also included in lowest order. Intrinsic particle–particle–hole contributions to energies are found to be 20–30% of the sum of the one- and two-body contributions. Transition rates and line strengths are calculated for the 4d–4f and 4d–5l electric-dipole (E1) transitions in Ag-like ions with nuclear charge Z = 50–100. RMBPT including the Breit interaction is used to evaluate retarded E1 matrix elements in length and velocity forms. First-order RMBPT is used to obtain intermediate coupling coefficients and second-order RMBPT is used to calculate transition matrix elements. A detailed discussion of the various contributions to the dipole matrix elements and energy levels is given for silverlike tungsten (Z = 74). The transition energies included in the calculation of oscillator strengths and transition rates are from second-order RMBPT. Trends of the transition rates as functions of Z are illustrated graphically for selected transitions. Additionally, we perform calculations of energies and transition rates for Ag-like W by the Hartree–Fock relativistic method (Cowan code) and the Multiconfiguration Relativistic Hebrew University Lawrence Atomic Code (HULLAC code) to compare with results from the RMBPT code. These atomic data are important in modeling of N-shell radiation spectra of heavy ions generated in various collision as well as plasma experiments. The tungsten data are particularly important for fusion application.PACS Nos.: 31.15.A–, 31.15.ag, 31.15.am, 31.15.aj

Excitation energies, line strengths, oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities are calculated for 4d–14f, 4d–15p, 4d–15f, and 4d–16p hole–particle states in Pd-like ions with nuclear charges Z ranging from 49 to 100. Relativistic many-body perturbation theory (MBPT), including the Breit interaction, is used to evaluate retarded E1 matrix elements in length and velocity forms. The calculations start from a [Kr] 4d10 closed-shell Dirac–Hartree–Fock (DHF) potential and include second- and third-order Coulomb corrections and second-order Breit–Coulomb corrections. First-order perturbation theory is used to obtain intermediate-coupling coefficients and second-order MBPT is used to determine matrix elements. Contributions from negative-energy states are included in the second-order electric-dipole matrix elements. The resulting transition energies, line strengths, and transition rates are compared with experimental values and with other recent calculations. Trends of oscillator strengths as functions of nuclear charge Z are shown graphically for all transitions from the 4d–14f, 4d–15p, 4d–15f, and 4d–16p states to the ground state.

Excitation energies of ns1/2, npj, and ndj states in Cd+ (n = 5), Hg+ (n = 5) and ns1/2, npj, and (n – 1)dj states in Ca+ (n = 4), Sr+ (n = 5), and Ba+ (n = 6) are evaluated using the linearized coupled-cluster (all-order) method. Reduced matrix elements, oscillator strengths, and transition rates are determined for the ns–npj–ndj (or ns–npj–(n – 1)dj) possible electric dipole transitions in Ca+, Sr+, Ba+, Cd+, and Hg+. Electric quadrupole matrix elements are evaluated to obtain ns1/2–(n – 1)dj transition rates in Ca+ (n = 5), Sr+ (n = 5), and Ba+ (n = 6). The matrix elements are calculated using both relativistic many-body perturbation theory, complete through third order, and the relativistic all-order method restricted to single and double (SD) excitations. The SD lifetime results for the np and nd states in Ca+, Sr+, Ba+, Cd+, and Hg+, are compared with the latest available experimental measurements. The contribution of the magnetic dipole nd3/2–nd5/2 transition to the lifetimes of the lowest nd5/2 level ln Ca+, Sr+, and Ba+ ions is discussed. These calculations provide a theoretical benchmark for comparison with experiment and theory as well as data needed for various applications.

AbstractComplete and consistent atomic data, including excitation energies, lifetimes, wavelengths, hyperfine structures, Landé gJ-factors and E1, E2, M1, and M2 line strengths, oscillator strengths, transitions rates are reported for the low-lying 41 levels of Mo XXVIII, belonging to the n = 3 states (1s22s22p6)3s23p3, 3s3p4, and 3s23p23d. High-accuracy calculations have been performed as benchmarks in the request for accurate treatments of relativity, electron correlation, and quantum electrodynamic (QED) effects in multi-valence-electron systems. Comparisons are made between the present two data sets, as well as with the experimental results and the experimentally compiled energy values of the National Institute for Standards and Technology wherever available. The calculated values including core-valence correction are found to be in a good agreement with other theoretical and experimental values. The present results are accurate enough for identification and deblending of emission lines involving the n = 3 levels, and are also useful for modeling and diagnosing plasmas.
