Experimental M1 Transition Rates of Coronal Lines from Arx, Arxiv, and Arxv

Abstract: Transition probabilities of three magnetic dipole (M1) transitions in multiply charged ions of Ar have been measured using the Livermore electron-beam ion trap. Two of the transitions are in the ground conÐgurations of Ar XIV (B-like) and Ar IX (F-like), and are associated with the coronal lines at 4412.4 and 5533.4respectively. The third is in the excited 2s2p conÐguration of Be-like Ar XV and produces A , the coronal line at 5943.73Our results for the three atomic level lifetimes are 9.32^0.12 ms for the A .… Show more

“…The earlier measurements of Serpa et al (1998) and Moehs & Church (1998) give values of 8.7 ± 0.5 ms and 9.12 ± 0.15 ms, respectively. However, the later measurement by Träbert et al (2000) gives a value of 9.70 ± 0.15 ms, which also agrees very well with our result of 9.714 ms. Additional measurements of τ for other levels of Ar XIV will be helpful in further assessing the accuracy of our calculations.…”

“…The gas of interest is injected ballistically at reservoir pressures below 10 −7 mbar into the ultrahigh vacuum of the EBIT vessel; the gas plume expands to a pressure well below 10 −9 mbar where it traverses the actual trap volume and the electron beam (Träbert et al 2000). Collisions with the electron beam disintegrate the molecules; any resulting positively charged particles are being trapped in the combination of electric and magnetic fields of a Penning trap plus the space charge effects caused by the electron beam.…”

“…In the same year and by the same approach, Koc produced fine structure intervals and M1/E2 transition rates within the ground term of B-like ions with an atomic number Z from 10 to 30, and so on [39][40][41]. This latter topic ties in with the demand for accurate ab initio calculations to compare with accurate wavelength and lifetime measurements at electron beam ion traps (EBIT) [42][43][44][45]. However, in this latter suite of studies, only a single transition is of primary interest (see [46]), the electric-dipole (E1) forbidden transition in the 2s 2 2p 2 P o ground term.…”
