Title: Resonance-to-intercombination-line ratios of neonlike ions in the relativistic regime

Abstract

We report measurements of the intensity ratio of the 1s22s22p$$5\atop{1/2}$$3d3/2→1s22s22p6 resonance line to the 1s22s22p$$5\atop{3/2}$$3d5/2→1s22s22p6 intercombination line in neonlike Kr26+ and Mo32+. The measurements were performed at the EBIT-I electron beam ion trap facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and utilized an x-ray microcalorimeter. The measured ratio for Mo32+ is in four times closer agreement with theoretical predictions than earlier measurements of ions with lower atomic number. Our measurement thus suggests a narrowing of the disagreement with atomic number, which had not been observed in the previously existing data. This implies that the disagreement with theory may be localized to ions within a range of atomic numbers in which intermediate coupling dominates.
