Theoretical determination of K X-ray transition energy and probability values for highly charged (He- through B-like) Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, and Yb ions. (January 2019) - Marques, J.P.
Abstract: We calculated the X-ray fluorescence fundamental parameters transition energy and probability values for the ground and excited states of highly charged (He-, Li-, Be-, and B-like) Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, and Yb ions leading to the emission of K X-ray lines. In these calculations we used the multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method, including QED corrections, to obtain wave functions and energy values for each level involved in the K X-ray transitions. Abstract : Highlights: Highly ionized Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, and Yb systems are investigated. K X-ray lines of He-, Li-, Be-, and B-like ions are studied. Relativistic transition energies and probabilities are calculated. Electronic correlation was included in the wave functions.
