The spectrum of Mg-like Br, Br XXIV, was investigated by means of the beam-foil technique. Bromine ions of 90 and 130 MeV energy from the HI-13 tandem accelerator at the China Institute of Atomic Energy were used, and the wavelength region 130–290 Å was investigated. The spectra showed 24 Br XXIV transitions within the n = 3 complex, i.e. between the 3s2, 3s3p, 3p2, 3s3d and 3p3d configurations. Of these 5 have been reported earlier. In this spectrum 19 energy levels have now been experimentally determined, 14 of which have not been reported earlier. The observed energy level values have been theoretically interpreted by means of relativistic Hartree-Fock (HFR) calculations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
