Fe15+dielectronic recombination and the effects of configuration interaction between resonances with different captured electron principal quantum numbers

Abstract: Dielectronic recombination (DR) of Na-like Fe 15+ forming Mg-like Fe 14+ via excitation of a 2l core electron has been investigated. We find that configuration interaction (CI) between DR resonances with different captured electron principal quantum numbers n can lead to a significant reduction in resonance strengths for n 5. Previous theoretical work for this system has not considered this form of CI. Including it accounts for most of the discrepancy between previous theoretical and experimental results.

“…We have verified the convergence of our calculations by increasing the partial wave expansion up to l max = 50 and find that the results do not change. We have also checked for the effects of configuration interaction (CI) between different 2l 7 3s 2 3p 3 nl configurations for n = 3-10 using the same approach as we did for our CI studies of dielectronic recombination for Fe 15+ [26]. However, we find that the CI does not change our results.…”

“…These channels were included here and are available for n 5 for Ca 9+ , n 6 for Ti 11+ and Cr 13+ , and n 7 for Fe 15+ , Ni 17+ , and Zn 19+ . As shown in Kwon & Savin (2011), multi-n CI results in the opening up of additional autoionization and radiative decay channels.…”

“…The resulting rate coefficient is about 13% smaller at CIE temperatures than our fully single-n CI results. This is due to the reduction in resonance strengths as detailed in Kwon & Savin (2011). Figure 2 shows the total rate coefficients for Ca 9+ , Ti 11+ , Cr 13+ , Fe 15+ , Ni 17+ , and Zn 19+ .…”
