ABSTRACT Accurate atomic data are essential for opacity calculations and for abundance analyses of the Sun and other stars. The aim of this work is to provide accurate and extensive results of energy levels and transition data for C i–iv. The Multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock and relativistic configuration interaction methods were used in this work. To improve the quality of the wavefunctions and reduce the relative differences between length and velocity forms for transition data involving high Rydberg states, alternative computational strategies were employed by imposing restrictions on the electron substitutions when constructing the orbital basis for each atom and ion. Transition data, for example, weighted oscillator strengths and transition probabilities, are given for radiative electric dipole (E1) transitions involving levels up to 1s22s22p6s for C i, up to 1s22s27f for C ii, up to 1s22s7f for C iii, and up to 1s28g for C iv. Using the difference between the transition rates in length and velocity gauges as an internal validation, the average uncertainties of all presented E1 transitions are estimated to be 8.05 per cent, 7.20 per cent, 1.77 per cent, and 0.28 per cent, respectively, for C i–iv. Extensive comparisons with available experimental and theoretical results are performed and good agreement is observed for most of the transitions. In addition, the C i data were employed in a re-analysis of the solar carbon abundance. The new transition data give a line-by-line dispersion similar to the one obtained when using transition data that are typically used in stellar spectroscopic applications today.

The energy levels of the lower valence and Rydberg states of selenoformaldehyde, CH2Se, have been calculated by the SCF/CI method. Wavefunctions for the ROHF (restricted open shell Hartree–Fock) states were obtained with the Binnings–Curtis double-ζ basis set, augmented with Rydberg and polarization functions. Configuration interaction was applied to the parent configurations, PCMO (parent configuration molecular orbital). Oscillator strengths were evaluated for the allowed electric dipole transitions by the RPA (random phase approximation), and SOPPA (second-order polarization propagator approximation) methods. The spin-orbit contribution to the zero field splitting of the first triplet state, 3A2(n,π*) as well as the oscillator strengths to the three spin components were calculated by perturbation theory. These calculations predict that the Sx, Sy, and Sz components are shifted by −96.091,−96.707, and + 29.167 cm−1, respectively, from their unperturbed position. The oscillator strengths for the three components fx, fy, and fz of the 3A2(n,π*) ← 1A1(g.s.) transition were calculated to be 3.45 × 10−7, 1.15 × 10−7, and 173.0 × 10−7.

The main purpose of the Database on Rare Earths At Mons University (DREAM) is to provide the scientific community with updated spectroscopic parameters related to lanthanide atoms (Z = 57–71) in their lowest ionization stages. The radiative parameters (oscillator strengths and transitions probabilities) listed in the database have been obtained over the past 20 years by the Atomic Physics and Astrophysics group of Mons University, Belgium, thanks to a systematic and extensive use of the pseudo-relativistic Hartree-Fock (HFR) method modified for taking core-polarization and core-penetration effects into account. Most of these theoretical results have been validated by the good agreement obtained when comparing computed radiative lifetimes and accurate experimental values measured by the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique. In the present paper, we report on the current status and developments of the database that gathers radiative parameters for more than 72,000 spectral lines in neutral, singly-, doubly-, and triply-ionized lanthanides.

The transition parameters such as the wavelengths, weighted oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities (or rates) for the nd (n=5−9)−nf (n=4−8), nd (n=5−9)−np (n=6−9), np (n=6−9)−ns (n=6−10), and ng (n=5−8)−nf (n=4−8) electric dipole (E1) transitions of doubly ionized lanthanum (La III, Z=57) have been calculated using the relativistic Hartree-Fock (HFR) method. In this method, configuration interaction and relativistic effects have been included in the computations combined with a least squares fitting of the Hamiltonian eigenvalues to the observed energy levels. We have compared the results obtained from this work with the previously available calculations and experiments in literature. We have also reported new transitions with the weighted transition probabilities greater than or equal to 105.

Theoretical multiplet strengths for electric quadrupole transitions between 2S, 2P0, 2D, and 2F0 levels of Na I, Mg II, and Al III have been calculated using Hartree–Fock wave functions of frozen-core type. The resulting 2S–2D oscillator strengths for Na I are in good agreement with calculations by Bogaard and Orr, Boyle and Murray, and Warner; however, for Mg II there is a discrepancy of a factor of 2 between our results and those of Warner.

Generalized oscillator strengths and the cross section for excitation of helium by electron impact have been calculated in the Born approximation. Transitions from the ground state to the n1P (n = 2 and 3) states have been considered. Highly accurate wave functions of the Hartree–Fock and "configuration–interaction" type have been used to represent the ground state. Approximate wave functions due to Messmer have been employed for the final states. The results are compared with other calculations and with experiment.

The amount of cancellation in the transition integrals for some np–n′d and nd–n′f singlet and triplet transitions for some members of helium isoelectronic sequence is estimated with Hartree–Fock wave functions. The results may act as a measure of the confidence level that can be attributed to the values of oscillator strengths of the respective cases.

The relativistic oscillator strengths for the np2 → np(n + 1)s transition array as well as the lifetimes of levels of the np(n + 1)s configuration in SnI and PbI spectra were calculated in jj and intermediate coupling. The relativistic radial integrals were computed employing the wave functions obtained by a semiempirical approach which allowed for exchange effects. The results obtained are compared with existing experimental and theoretical data. The significance of intermediate coupling for oscillator strengths computations is discussed. The agreement with experiment is for the present semiempirical results generally better (particularly for the PbI spectrum) than for oscillator strength deduced from 'Optimized Hartree–Fock–Slater' transition probabilities, which were published previously.

The lifetimes for the levels of 5p6nf (n = 5–30), 5p6np (n = 6–30), 5p6nd (n = 5–30), 5p6ng (n = 5–30), and 5p6ns (n = 7–30) configurations and the transition parameters for the electric dipole transitions between these levels have been calculated using the relativistic Hartree–Fock (HFR) method for triply ionized cerium (Ce IV, Z = 58). We have compared the results with the previously reported available calculations and experiments in the literature. Moreover, some new transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, and lifetime values for highly excited levels in Ce IV, not appearing in databases, have been obtained using this method.
