Polarization measurements of the Lyman-α1x-ray emission lines of hydrogenlikeAr17+and

Abstract: We have measured the polarization of the 2p 3/2 → 1s 1/2 Lyman-␣ 1 x-ray line of hydrogenlike Ar 17+ and Fe 25+ at electron-impact energies ranging from 7 to 25 threshold units. The highly charged argon and iron ions were produced using the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory SuperEBIT electron beam ion trap. A combination of two crystal spectrometers and a microcalorimeter were used to record the Lyman-␣ x-ray emission of Ar 17+ and Fe 25+ and to infer the polarization of the Lyman-␣ 1 line. Our results sh… Show more

“…In particular, we report measurements of the DR satellite transitions and their parent resonance lines of Fe XXV and Fe XXVI. Earlier measurements of the K-shell X-ray emission of highly charged ions conducted with the microcalorirneter on EBIT-I have been limited to lines" produced by electron-impact excitation [25][26][27][28][29], measurements of the associated X-ray polarization [30], and lines produced by charge exchange [31][32][33][34]. The present measurements were obtained with a thermal plasma sinnulation technique implemented on EBIT-I.…”

“…1. The coincident registration of the x rays completely removes one major restriction of most of the earlier experiments-the contribution of cascades to the alignment of the excited state [10,[14][15][16][17]. We observed large alignment angles that manifest the coherent population of the magnetic substates.…”

“…Moreover, the coincident x-ray detection suppressed the contribution of the cascades from the n > 2 states to the Lyα x rays. In earlier alignment experiments, these cascades significantly influenced the results [10,[14][15][16][17]. In Fig.…”

“…The polarization effects in spectral line emission due to anisotropic excitation and/or dielectronic capture by monodirectional beam electrons are a subject of continuing interest (see, e.g., [37][38][39][40][41][42]). To include the anisotropic effects, one can develop an extensive CR model resolved in magnetic sublevels for autoionizing states; this model will be described below.…”
