Photoionization cross section of Ne-like Cu XX with J=1

Relativistic calculations of photoionization cross sections of Ne-like Cu XX using the Breit–Pauli R-matrix method in close-coupling approximation and fully relativistic distorted-wave method are reported. In the present work, the relativistic distorted-wave method is employed to calculate the fine-structure energy levels and radial functions, and the Breit–Pauli R-matrix method is employed to calculate photoionizaton cross section for photon energy from 124.2 Ryd to 208 Ryd. Resonance structure in the photoionization of Ne-like Cu XX for ejection of 2p or 2s electron from the ground 2s²2p^{6 1}S₀ has been studied.
