Systematic Studies on the Inter-Combination Lines of He-like to O-like Argon
Abstract
Multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock calculations have been carried out in the Extended Optimal Level (EOL) scheme on the energies, transition probabilities and weighted absorption oscillator strengths of intercombination lines of highly ionized argon. The calculations have been carried out in intermediate coupling with empty K shell, varying degrees of ionization in the L shell and open outer shells. The radiative transition rates have been calculated in both length and velocity gauges and an analysis on the accuracy of the orbital functions used in this work has been attempted by comparing the length form and velocity form transition rates.
