Isoelectronic studies of the 4s4p /sup 3/P/sub J/ energy levels in the Zn sequence

Journal Article · · J. Opt. Soc. Am. B: Opt. Phys.; (United States)
Screening parameterizations of the spin--orbit and exchange energies are used to systematize available data accurately for the 4s4p configuration in the Zn isoelectronic sequence. Through the availability of precision measurements of the 4s/sup 2/ /sup 1/S/sub 0/--4s4p /sup 1/P/sub 1/ resonance transition, these screening parameterizations are used to make accurate interpolative and extrapolative predictions of the excitation energies of the 4s4p /sup 3/P/sub J/ levels for ions from Ge III through Ba XXVII. These results also provide extrapolative predictions of the magnetic-dipole, electric-quadrupole, and intercombination transitions in this system that sometimes occur in localized diagnostics of high-temperature plasmas.
