Electron impact excitation of highly charged Ge-Like Xe ion

Abstract

Synopsis A systematic study of electron impact excitation of Ge-like highly charged xenon ions have been carried out in Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) range within fully relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock framework. The cross section calculation reported here are performed for dipole allowed transitions for Xe22+ ions from ground state 4s24p2 to 4s24p3 and 4s24p4d excited fine structure levels. The analytic fitting for the cross section data for incident electron energy range within 50 to 1500 eV have been provided for further applications in various plasma diagnostic techniques.
