E1, E2, M1, and M2 transitions in the nickel isoelectronicsequence
2004
A relativistic many-body method is developed to calculate energy and transition rates for multipole transitions in many-electron ions. This method is based on relativistic many-body perturbation theory (RMBPT), agrees with MCDF calculations in lowest order, includes all second-order correlation corrections, and includes corrections from negative-energy states. Reduced matrix elements, oscillator strengths, and transition rates are calculated for electric-dipole (E1) and electric-quadrupole (E2) transitions, and magnetic-dipole (M1) and magnetic-quadrupole (M2) transitions in Ni-like ions with nuclear charges ranging from Z = 30 to 100. The calculations start from a 1s22s22p63s23p63d10 DiracFock potential. First-order perturbation theory is used to obtain intermediate-coupling coefficients, and second-order RMBPT is used to determine the matrix elements. The contributions from negative-energy states are included in the second-order E1, M1, E2, and M2 matrix elements. The resulting transition energies and ...
