Proton Excitation Rate Coefficients and Cross Sections among the Fine-Structure Levels of the (2s2p)3 P State in Be-like Ions
Abstract
Proton excitation cross sections and rate coefficients are given for the fine-structure transitions in the (2 s2 p) 3P state in the Be-like ions C III, N IV, O V, F VI, Ne VII, Mg IX, Si XI, S XIII, Ar XV, Ca XVII, and Fe XXIII. In the low-energy region we used the semiclassical Coulomb excitation method, while for the intermediate-energy range, we used a close-coupling impact parameter method. For the temperatures tabulated here, the rate coefficients for all the transitions are better than 5%.
