K-shell photoionization of boron-like carbon ions： analysis of ls-2p resonances

Close-coupling calculations based on an R-matrix formalism are performed for the 1s--2p resonance photoionizations from the low-lying states of boron-like carbon ions. The resonance energies, widths and oscillator strengths of 1s-2p core excitations are determined by analysing the calculated photoionization cross sections. Our calculations are in reasonable agreement with the experimental and theoretical results presented by other authors. The present numerical values may help to analyse the astrophysical and laboratory plasmas.     

Open M-shell Opacity of Bromine Plasma in Comparison of the Detailed Level Accounting Model with the Average Atom Model

The open M-shell opacity of a hot bromine plasma has been calculated by using a detailed level accounting （DLA） model. One-electron orbitals obtained by solving the fully relativistic Dirac-Fock equations are used to obtain the atomic levels and the radiative transition oscillator strengths. Only the level mixing within the same electron configuration is considered to reduce the complexity of the calculations. Detailed comparisons have been made between the results of the DLA and average atom （AA） models. Good agreements are found for both the M-shell transition arrays and the Planck mean opacity but there are differences for the line positions in the 2p → 3d absorption region due to the statistical treatment for the one-electron orbitals in the AA model.     

Electron impact excitation rate coefficients of N II ion

This paper calculates the electron impact excitation rate coefficients from the ground term 2s²2p^{2 3}P to the excited terms of the 2s²2p², 2s2p³, 2s²2p3s, 2s²2p3p, and 2s²2p3d configurations of N II. In the calculations, multiconfiguration Dirac--Fork wave functions have been applied to describe the target-ion states and relativistic distorted-wave calculation has been performed to generate fine-structure collision strengths. The collision strengths are then averaged over a Maxwellian distribution of electron velocities in order to generate the effective collision strengths. The calculated rate coefficients are compared with available experimental and theoretical data, and some good agreements are found for the outer shell electron excitations. But for the inner shell electron excitations there are still some differences between the present calculations and available experiments.     

Relativistic Configuration Interaction Treatment of Generalized Oscillator Strength for Krypton

A fully relativistic configuration interaction method is developed to investigate the transition energies and general oscillator strengths of the lower lying states of krypton, for both optically allowed and optically forbidden transitions. The calculated results are in agreement with the recent experimental measurements. The calculated transition energies for the 5s and 5s＇ transitions are 9.970 and 10. 717eV, which agree with the experimental data of 10.033 and 10.643 eV. The calculated oscillator strengths are 0.211 and 0. 170, comparable with the experimental results 0.214（±0.012） and 0.194 （±0.012）, respectively. The momentum transfer positions （K^2 in a.u.） of the minimum and maximum GOSs in the 4s^24p^6 → 4s^24p^5 （5s ＋ 5s＇） transitions are 1.105 and 2.225, comparable with the measurements results 1.24 and 2.97 [Phys. Rev. A 67 （2003） 062708].     

Theoretical Analysis of Generalized Oscillator Strengths for Helium by R-Matrix Method

The high-energy electronic-impact excitation cross section is directly proportional to the generalized oscillators trength (GOS) of the target atom. The generalized oscillator strengths of helium atom from the ground state to the excited states (2^1S, 2^1P and 3^1D) are calculated using the updated R-matrix codes within the first Born approximation. Our calculation results are in good agreement with the previous theoretical and experimental results at high incident energies. In order to treat the bound-bound and bound-continuum transitions in a unified manner, the GOS density is defined based on the quantum defect theory. We calculate the GOS densities of ^1S, ^1p and ^1D charmels, namely the complete high-energy collision cross sections of electronic-impact excitations into all the n^1S, n^1P and n^1D excited states. In addition to high-energy excitation cross sections, a scheme to calculate the excitation cross sections for entire incident energy range is discussed.

Energy levels, wavefunction compositions and lifetimes have been computed for all levels of 1s22s22p5, 1s22s2p6,1s22s22p43 s, 1s22s22p43 p, and 1s22s22p43 d configurations in highly charged F-like tungsten ion. The multiconfigurational Dirac–Fock method(MCDF) is adopted to generate the wavefunctions. We have also presented the transition wavelengths,oscillator strengths, transition probabilities, and line strengths for the electric dipole(E1) and magnetic quadrupole(M2)transition from the 1s22s22p5 ground configuration. We have performed parallel calculations with the flexible atomic code(FAC) for comparing the atomic data. The reliability of present data is assessed by comparison with other theoretical and experimental data available in the literature. Good agreement is found between our results and those obtained using different approaches confirm the quality of our results. Additionally, we have predicted some new atomic data for F-like W that were not available so far and may be important for plasma diagnostic analysis in fusion plasma.

Absolute generalized oscillator strengths (GOSs) for the C l s preionization-edge transitions at 295.4eV and 297. 7eV in Perfluoroethane have been determined as functions of energy loss and momentum transfer (K) at impact energy of 2.5keV for the first time. The corresponding GOS profiles have been found to have the characteristic dipole-dominated shapes with a strong maximum at K=0. The spectral features can be interpreted in terms of transitions terminating at the σ^*(C-F) molecular orbital.     

Oscillator strength study of the excitations of valence-shell of C2H2 by high-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering

The oscillator strengths of the valence-shell excitations of C₂H₂ are extremely important for testing theoretical models and studying interstellar gases. In this study, the high-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) method is adopted to determine the generalized oscillator strengths (GOSs) of the valence-shell excitations of C₂H₂ at a photon energy of 10 keV. The GOSs are extrapolated to their zero limit to obtain the corresponding optical oscillator strengths (OOSs). Through taking a completely different experimental method of the IXS, the present results offer the high energy limit for electron collision to satisfy the first Born approximation (FBA) and cross-check the previous experimental and theoretical results independently. The comparisons indicate that an electron collision energy of 1500 eV is not enough for C₂H₂ to satisfy the FBA for the large squared momentum transfer, and the line saturation effect limits the accuracy of the OOSs measured by the photoabsorption method.     

Transition parameters of Li-like ions(Z = 7–11) in dense plasmas

The energy levels, transition energies, transition probabilities, weighted oscillator strengths, and line strengths of Lilike ions(Z = 7–11) in dense plasmas are investigated in this work. The relativistic effects and electron correlation effects are described by the MCDHF method. The ion sphere model is applied to include the dense plasma screening effect. The ground configuration 1 s~22 s and the excited 1 s~22 p, 1 s~23 l(l = 0–2) are considered. The configuration sets are enlarged until n = 7 where the calculated energy levels have converged. The critical free electron densities of 1 s~23 d states are estimated.Except for 1 s~23 s–1 s~23 p transitions, the transition energies for Δn = 0 increase, and for Δn ≠ 0 decrease with increasing free electron densities. For 1 s~23 s–1 s~23 p transitions, the spectra show blue-shift at lower free electron densities and red-shift at higher free electron densities, and the energy level crossing phenomens are observed at higher free electron densities.

Transition energy and dipole oscillator strength for 1s22p-1s2nd of Cr2l+ ion

The transition energies, wavelengths and dipole oscillator strengths of 1s^22p-1s^2nd （3 ≤ n ≤ 9） for Cr^21＋ ion are calculated. The fine structure splittings of 1s^2nd （n ≤ 9） states for this ion are also calculated. In calculating energy, we have estimated the higher-order relativistic contribution under a hydrogenic approximation. The quantum defect of Rydberg series 1s^2nd is determined according to the quantum defect theory. The results obtained in this paper excellently agree with the experimental data available in the literature. Combining the quantum defect theory with the discrete oscillator strengths, the discrete oscillator strengths for the transitions from initial state 1s^22p to highly excited 1s^2nd states （n ≥ 10） and the oscillator strength density corresponding to the bound-free transitions are obtained.

The 4s orbital of sulfur has been studied by semiempirical calculations on the H₂S molecule. Overlap population, overlap energy, dipole moment, and oscillator strengths are computed as functions of the orbital exponent of the Slater type 4s orbital, with and without 3d orbitals. The 4s orbital contracts from what is expected for the free atom, but remains essentially Rydberg in character.     

Excitation of rubidium atoms by electron impact

An analytic central potential containing two adjustable parameters is used to generate wave functions for the ground and excited states of the rubidium atom. The two parameters are chosen so that the potential reproduces accurately known values of optical oscillator strengths for the 5s?np (n≧5) transitions. Using the Born approximation, we calculate generalized oscillator strengths and integrated cross sections up to 5 keV for the 5s?np excitations. Reasonable agreement with experimental data is obtained.
