“…Due to the energy of states with K-shell vacancies being higher than 7 keV, which is far greater than the energy of photons and electrons in this experiment, changes in K-shell electrons were not taken into account. Taking Fe 15+ as an example, we calculate the maximum principal quantum number n to be 5, the configurations including: (2) 5 (3) 2 (4) 2 , (2) 5 (3) 2 (4) 1 (5) 1 , (2) 5 (3) 3 (5) 1 , (2) 5 (3) 3 (4) 1 , (2) 5 (3) 4 , (2) 5 (3) 2 (5) 2 , (2) 6 (3) 3 , (2) 6 (3) 2 (4) 1 , (2) 6 (3) 2 (5) 1 , (2) 6 (3) 1 (4) 2 ,(2) 6 (3) 1 (4) 1 (5) 1 , (2) 6 (3) 1 (5) 2 , (2) 7 (3) 2 , (2) 7 (3) 1 (4) 1 , (2) 7 (3) 1 (5) 1 , (2) 7 (4) 2 , (2) 7 (5) 2 , (2) 8 (3) 1 , (2) 8 (4) 1 , (2) 8 (5) 1 . For convenience, (2) 6 means 2s 2 2p 4 , 2s 1 2p 5 , 2s 0 2p 6 , the others are according to similar rules.…”
