Energies, E1, M1, and E2 transition rates, hyperfine structures, and Lande g{sub J} factors for states of the 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 2}, 2s2p{sup 3}, and 2p{sup 4} configurations in carbon-like ions between F IV and Ni XXIII

Energies, electric dipole, magnetic dipole, and electric quadrupole transition rates, hyperfine structures, and Lande g{sub J} factors from relativistic configuration interaction calculations are reported for the states of the (1s{sup 2})2s{sup 2}2p{sup 2}, 2s2p{sup 3}, and 2p{sup 4} configurations in all carbon-like ions between F IV and Ni XXIII. Valence, core-valence, and core-core correlation effects were accounted for through single/double-excitation-multireference expansions to increasing sets of active orbitals. The calculated energy levels generally agree within a few hundred cm{sup -1} with the experimentally compiled results, and the Babushkin (length), and Coulomb (velocity) forms of transition rates agree within less than 1% for a majority of the allowed transitions.

Energy levels and radiative rates for transitions in Ga XXIV

Energy levels, transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, line strengths, and lifetimes have been calculated for Oxygen-like Gallium, Ga XXIV. The configurations 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 4}, 2s2p{sup 5}, 2p{sup 6}, 2s2p{sup 4}3 Script-Small-L , 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 3}3 Script-Small-L , and 2p{sup 5}3 Script-Small-L were used in calculations and 226 fine-structure levels were obtained.

Comparisons have been made with earlier available theoretical and experimental results.

An update of the B(E2) evaluation for 0{sub 1}{sup +}{yields}2{sub 1}{sup +} transitions in even-even nuclei near N{approx}Z{approx}28

An update of the B(E2){up_arrow} evaluation for even-even Cr, Fe, Ni, and Zn nuclei is presented. It is a continuation of work by Raman et al. on B(E2){up_arrow} values and was motivated by a large number of new measurements. It extends the previous evaluation from 20 to 38 nuclei and includes a comprehensive shell-model analysis. Evaluation policies for the analysis of experimental data are discussed. Future plans for a complete B(E2){up_arrow} evaluation of even-even nuclei are outlined.

Electric quadrupole transition probabilities for atomic lithium

Electric quadrupole transition probabilities for atomic lithium have been calculated using the weakest bound electron potential model theory (WBEPMT). We have employed numerical non-relativistic Hartree–Fock wavefunctions for expectation values of radii and the necessary energy values have been taken from the compilation at NIST. The results obtained with the present method agree very well with the Coulomb approximation results given by Caves (1975). Moreover, electric quadrupole transition probability values not existing in the literature for some highly excited levels have been obtained using the WBEPMT.

Energy levels and radiative transition rates for Ge XXXI, As XXXII, and Se XXXIII

Fine-structure energies of the 67 levels belonging to the 1s{sup 2}, 1s 2l, 1s3l, 1s4l, 1s5l, and 1s6l configurations of Ge XXXI, As XXXII, and Se XXXIII have been calculated using the General-Purpose Relativistic Atomic Structure Package. In addition, radiative rates, oscillator strengths, transition wavelengths, and line strengths have been calculated for all electric dipole, magnetic dipole, electric quadrupole, and magnetic quadrupole transitions among these levels. Lifetimes are also presented for all excited levels of these three ions. We have compared our results with the results available in the literature and the accuracy of the data is assessed. We predict new energy levels, oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities where no other theoretical or experimental results are available, which will form the basis for future experimental work.

Electric quadrupole transition probabilities and line strengths of Ti{sup 11+}

Electric quadrupole transition probabilities and line strengths have been calculated using the weakest bound electron potential model for sodium-like titanium, considering many transition arrays. We employed numerical Coulomb approximation and non-relativistic Hartree–Fock wavefunctions for the expectation values of radii in determination of parameters of the model. The necessary energy values have been taken from experimental data in the literature. The calculated electric quadrupole line strengths have been compared with available data in the literature and good agreement has been obtained. Moreover, some electric quadrupole transition probability and line strength values not existing in the literature for some highly excited levels have been obtained using this method.

Radiative rates for E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions in the Br-like ions Sr IV, Y V, Zr VI, Nb VII, and Mo VIII

Energies and lifetimes are reported for the lowest 375 levels of five Br-like ions, namely Sr IV, Y V, Zr VI, Nb VII, and Mo VIII, mostly belonging to the 4s{sup 2}4p{sup 5}, 4s{sup 2}4p{sup 4}4ℓ, 4s4p{sup 6}, 4s{sup 2}4p{sup 4}5ℓ, 4s{sup 2}4p{sup 3}4d{sup 2}, 4s4p{sup 5}4ℓ, and 4s4p{sup 5}5ℓ configurations. Extensive configuration interaction has been included and the general-purpose relativistic atomic structure package (GRASP) has been adopted for the calculations. Additionally, radiative rates are listed among these levels for all E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions. From a comparison with the measurements, the majority of our energy levels are assessed to be accurate to better than 2%, although discrepancies between theory and experiment for a few are up to 6%. An accuracy assessment of the calculated radiative rates (and lifetimes) is more difficult, because no prior results exist for these ions.

Tables of E2 transition probabilities from the first 2 + states in even–even nuclei

Highlights: • Compilation of experimental transition probabilities or B(E2) values for the known first 2{sup +} states in even–even nuclei. • Evaluation of B(E2) values, lifetimes and deformation parameters for 447 even–even nuclei. • Extensive discussion on data evaluation policies and procedures. • Nuclear shell model calculation of the first 2{sup +} states energies and B(E2) values in even–even nuclei. Experimental results of E2 transition probabilities or B(E2) values for the known first 2{sup +} states in 447 even–even nuclei have been compiled and evaluated. The evaluation policies for the analysis of experimental data have been described and new results are discussed. The recommended B(E2) values have been compared with comprehensive shell model calculations for a selected set of nuclei, where such theoretical procedures are amenable. The present work was motivated by a rapid increase in the number of new B(E2) measurements for the first 2{sup +} states since the previous evaluation of such data by S. Raman et al. published in 2001. Future plans to investigate the systematics of B(E2)↑ values, and intercomparison of different experimental techniques to obtain these data are outlined.

Energy levels, lifetimes and radiative data of W LV

Calculations of energy levels, radiative data and lifetimes are reported for tungsten Ca-like ion (W LV) by using multi-configuration Dirac–Fock (MCDF) method. The GRASP2K package is adopted to carry out a large-scale systematic computation with a restricted active space treatment; the Breit interaction and QED effects are included in subsequent relativistic configuration interaction calculations. The energies and lifetimes of the lowest 119 levels are listed; the main leading configuration of the levels is of the ground state configuration [Ne]3s{sup 2}3p{sup 6}3d{sup 2} and the first excited configuration [Ne]3s{sup 2}3p{sup 5}3d{sup 3}. The wavelengths, radiative rates and oscillator strengths for relatively strong E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions are listed. Comparisons with earlier experimental and theoretical values are made. The average relative deviations of energy levels from the NIST results and E1 transition wavelengths from the EBIT experimental results have turned to be only 0.20% and 0.13%, respectively. The other present results are in reasonable agreement with available data. These agreements confirm the reliability and accuracy of the current results. The present datasets may help us with the investigation of the electron–electron correlation effects in complex multi-electron highly charged heavy ions and of the diagnosis of tungsten impurity plasmas in fusion science.

Large-scale calculations of atomic level and transition properties in the aluminum isoelectronic sequence from Ti X through Kr XXIV, Xe XLII, and W LXII

Large-scale self-consistent multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock subsequent relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) calculations are reported for 360 states belonging to the 30 configurations 3s{sup 2}{3l,4l,5l}, 3p{sup 2}{3d,4l}, 3s{3p"2,3d"2}, 3s{3p3d,3p4l,3p5s,3d4l"′}, 3p3d{sup 2}, 3p{sup 3} and 3d{sup 3} with l=0,1,…,n−1 and l{sup ′}=0,1,2 in 17 systems of the aluminum-like isoelectronic sequence: Ti X through Kr XXIV, Xe XLII, and W LXII. Effects from electron correlation are taken into account by means of large expansions in terms of a basis of configuration state functions (CSF) and calculated energy levels are compared with existing theoretical calculations and the NIST Atomic Spectra database. Radiative E1, E2, M1 and M2 transition rates and associated lifetimes of energy levels are presented in online tables. The uncertainties of the calculated energies are very small, on average between 0.02% and 0.05%, which aid new line identifications in laboratory and astronomical spectra and also make it possible to find and rule out misidentifications. The uncertainties of the E1 transition probabilities, based on the agreement between values in the length and velocity gauges, are estimated to be of the order 0.5% for the strong transitions and 25% for the weaker intercombination transitions. The M1 transition values are not sensitive to electron correlation and are believed to be accurate to well within 1%.

Radiative rates for E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions in F-like ions with 55≤Z≤73

Energy levels, radiative rates and lifetimes are reported for 19 F-like ions with 55≤Z≤73, among 113 levels of the 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}, 2s2p{sup 6}, 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 4}3ℓ, 2s2p{sup 5}3ℓ, and 2p{sup 6}3ℓ configurations. The general-purpose relativistic atomic structure package (grasp) has been adopted for the calculations, and radiative rates (and other associated parameters, such as oscillator strengths and line strengths) are listed for all E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions of the ions. Comparisons are made with earlier available theoretical and experimental energies, especially for Ba XLVIII. Nevertheless, calculations have also been performed with the flexible atomic code (fac), and with a much larger configuration interaction with up to 38 089 levels, for further accuracy assessments, particularly for energy levels.

The study of the core–valence and core–core correlation effects on the radiative properties along the magnesium isoelectronic sequence

We investigated the effect of core–valence and core–core correlations on the energy levels and transition probabilities along the Mg isoelectronic sequence from Si{sup 2+} to U{sup 80+}. In order to attain a certain accuracy for the atomic structure we considered configurations obtained by electron promotions from the n=3 up to n=7 valence shells. Core–valence and core–core correlations are systematically included in the model by allowing single and double electron promotions from the n=2 core up to the n=6 and n=5 shells with l≤4 and l≤2, respectively. The present results contain the energy of the levels arising from the valence configurations along with oscillator strengths and radiative rates corresponding to E1, M1, E2, M2 transitions between states arising from 3l3l{sup ′} with l,l{sup ′}≤2 and 3snl{sup ′′} with n≤7 and l{sup ′′}≤4 configurations. We conclude the data accuracy trend along the magnesium isoelectronic sequence as a result of the detailed study of the correlation effects on the radiative properties. The core–valence correlations generally improve both energy and radiative rate values, while the core–core correlations mostly give better oscillator strengths but may slightly increase the energy deviations. The calculations have been performed by employing the fully relativistic model-potential Flexible Atomic Code.

Radiative rates for E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions in Ne-like Cu XX, Zn XXI and Ga XXII

Energy levels, radiative rates and lifetimes are reported for the lowest 139 levels of three Ne-like ions, namely Cu XX, Zn XXI and Ga XXII. These levels mostly belong to the 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 6}, 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}3ℓ, 2s2p{sup 6}3ℓ, 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}4ℓ, 2s2p{sup 6}4ℓ, and 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}5ℓ configurations. For the calculations the general-purpose relativistic atomic structure package (GRASP) has been adopted. Comparisons are made with earlier available theoretical and experimental results, particularly among the lowest 27 levels of the 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 6} and 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}3ℓ configurations. Due to paucity of similar data for higher lying levels, analogous calculations have also been performed with the flexible atomic code (FAC). These calculations help in assessing the accuracy of our calculated results, especially for the energy levels.

Radiative rates for E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions in Ne-like Hf LXIII, Ta LXIV and Re LXVI

Calculations for energy levels, radiative rates and lifetimes have been performed for three Ne-like ions, namely Hf LXIII, Ta LXIV and Re LXVI, for which the general-purpose relativistic atomic structure package (GRASP) has been adopted. Results are presented among the lowest 121 levels of these ions, which belong to the 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 6}, 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}3ℓ, 2s2p{sup 6}3ℓ, 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}4ℓ, 2s2p{sup 6}4ℓ, and 2s{sup 2}2p{sup 5}5ℓ configurations, but CI (configuration interaction) has been considered among a much larger number of levels. No measurements for energy levels are available but comparisons have been made with the earlier similar theoretical results. Additionally, calculations have also been performed with the flexible atomic code (FAC) in order to assess the effect of (much) larger CI on energy levels.

Multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock energy levels, weighted oscillator strengths, transitions probabilities, lifetimes, hyperfine constants, Landé g-factors and isotope shifts of Xe LIII

Energy levels, weighted oscillator strengths and transition probabilities, lifetimes, hyperfine interaction constants, Landé g{sub J} factors and isotope shifts are calculated for all levels of 1s{sup 2} and 1snl (n=2−7) configurations of He-like xenon ion (Xe LIII). Multiconfigurational Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) method is adopted for calculating these spectroscopic data. Comparisons are made with similar data obtained with FAC (Flexible Atomic Code) to assess the accuracy of the results. Transition probabilities are reported for all E1, E2, M1 and M2 transitions from the ground level. Breit interactions and quantum electrodynamics effects are estimated in extensive Relativistic Configuration Interaction (RCI) calculations. Comparisons were made with the available data in the literature and good agreement was found which confirms the reliability of our results. The accuracy of the present calculations is high enough to facilitate identification of many observed spectral lines. Almost all atomic data of He-like xenon ion presented in this paper are calculated for the first time.

Nuclear chiral doublet bands data tables

Since the prediction of nuclear chirality in 1997, tremendous progresses both theoretically and experimentally have been achieved. Experimentally, 59 chiral doublet bands in 47 chiral nuclei (including 8 nuclei with multiple chiral doublets) have been reported in A∼80, 100, 130, and 190 mass regions. The spins, parities, energies, ratios of the magnetic dipole transition strengths to the electric quadrupole transition strengths, and related references for these nuclei are compiled and listed. For these nuclei with the magnetic dipole transition strengths and the electric quadrupole transition strengths measured, the corresponding results are given. A brief discussion is provided after the presentation of energy E, energy difference ΔE, energy staggering parameter S(I), rotational frequency ω, kinematic moment of inertia J{sup (1)}, dynamic moment of inertia J{sup (2)}, and ratio of the magnetic dipole transition strength to the electric quadrupole transition strength B(M1)∕B(E2) versus spin I in each mass region.
