Abstract

The lifetime of the 3s{sup 2}3p {sup 2}P{sub 3} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2}{sup o} first excited energy level of Fe XIV (Al like) was measured at the Heidelberg electron beam ion trap by monitoring its optical decay to the ground state by a magnetic dipole (M1) forbidden transition at {lambda}=530.29 nm (green coronal line), a well-known line in stellar spectra. A new trapping scheme has been applied. Possible systematic effects were investigated by studying the dependence of the decay curves on various trapping conditions with high statistical significance. The result of 16.726{sub -0.010}{sup +0.020} ms shows an unexplained discrepancy in the average value of existing theoretical predictions. The inclusion of the electron anomalous magnetic moment within the theoretical calculations increases this disagreement, thus pointing at other possible origins of this discrepancy.

Journal Article Hossain, S. ; Smith, S. J. ; Chutjian, A. ; ... - Physical Review. A

Experimental cross sections are reported for the Fe{sup 13+} coronal green line transition 3s{sup 2}3p {sup 2}P{sub 1} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2}{sup o}-3s{sup 2}3p {sup 2}P{sub 3} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2}{sup o} at {lambda}5303 A ring (2.338 eV). The center-of-mass interaction energies are in the range 1.7 eV (below threshold) through threshold, to 6.6 eV (2.9xthreshold). Data are compared with results of a 135-level Breit-Pauli R-matrix theory. Present experiment detects a strong maximum in the excitation cross section of magnitude 15x10{sup -16} cm{sup 2} at 2.6 eV.

Lifetime measurement of the Ar XIV 1s{sup 2}2s{sup 2}2p {sup 2}P{sub 3/2}{sup o} metastable level at the Heidelberg electron-beam ion trap

Journal Article Lapierre, A. ; Crespo Lopez-Urrutia, J. R. ; Braun, J. ; ... - Physical Review. A

We present the details of an accurate lifetime measurement of the 1s{sup 2}2s{sup 2}2p {sup 2}P{sub 3/2}{sup o} metastable level in boronlike Ar XIV performed at the Heidelberg electron beam ion trap [A. Lapierre et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 183001 (2005)]. The lifetime was inferred from decay curves resulting from deexcitation of the metastable level to its {sup 2}P{sub 1/2}{sup o} ground state through a magnetic-dipole (M1) transition upon cyclically turning on and off the electron beam. The measured lifetime of 9.573(4)((+12/-5)) ms (stat)(syst) is in disagreement with a trend of theoretical predictions of 9.53(1) ms, which include themore »« less

Journal Article Gurell, J. ; Lundin, P. ; Mannervik, S. ; ... - Physical Review. A

The two metastable levels 5d {sup 2}D{sub 3} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2} and 5d {sup 2}D{sub 5} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2} in Ba II both show extremely long lifetimes of the order of several tens of seconds each. This has been found both by experiments and by theoretical predictions. The small transition probabilities associated with these two levels make them interesting and challenging for theoreticians as well as for experimentalists. Several calculations and measurements of these two lifetimes have been made previously but discrepancies between the results are present. This article presents values ofmore »« less

Measurement of the hyperfine structure and isotope shifts of the 3s{sup 2}3p{sup 2} {sup 3}P{sub 2}{yields}3s3p{sup 3} {sup 3}D{sub 3}{sup o} transition in silicon

Journal Article Lee, S. A. ; Fairbank, W. M. Jr. - Physical Review. A

The hyperfine structure and isotope shifts of the 3s{sup 2}3p{sup 2} {sup 3}P{sub 2}{yields}3s3p{sup 3} {sup 3}D{sub 3}{sup o} transition in silicon have been measured. The transition at 221.7 nm was studied by-laser induced fluorescence in an atomic Si beam. For {sup 29}Si, the hyperfine A constant for the 3s{sup 2}3p{sup 2} {sup 3}P{sub 2} level was determined to be -160.1{+-}1.3 MHz (1{sigma} error), and the A constant for the 3s3p{sup 3} {sup 3}D{sub 3}{sup o} level is -532.9{+-}0.6 MHz. The isotope shifts (relative to the abundant isotope {sup 28}Si) of the transition were determined to be 1753.3{+-}1.1 MHz formore »« less

Journal Article Liu, L. ; Wang, J. G. ; Zhao, Y. Q. ; ... - Physical Review. A

The magnetic substate-selective single-electron-capture cross sections in collisions of N{sup 5+} with He and H{sub 2} are calculated using the two-center atomic orbital close-coupling method, and the polarization of emitted radiation from the excited state of N{sup 4+} is investigated for projectile energies between 1.2 and 7 keV/u. The polarization degrees for the 3p {sup 2}P{sub 3/2}-3s {sup 2}S{sub 1/2} transition of N{sup 4+}(3p {sup 2}P{sub 3/2}) produced in N{sup 5+}+He and N{sup 5+}+H{sub 2} electron-capture collisions are in general agreement with the experimental measurements.
