Abstract:Intra-configuration fine-structure transitions in highly charged ions
(HCI) result in most cases from changes in the coupling of equivalent electrons.
They are multipole forbidden to varying degrees and often occur within the optical
range. In HCI with semi-filled nd and nf subshells, electrons can in principle
couple to states which are energetically close but with very different total angular
momenta, e.g. 0 ≤ J ≤ 10. This gives rise to metastable states with very&… Show more
