Abstract

X-ray spectra of highly ionized tungsten and neighbouring atoms (Tm, Yb, Hf, Ta, W, Re and Pt) has been observed from laser produced plasmas in the λ = 6-9 A range. Beside the prominent lines of the Ni I-like ions, lines belonging to Co I (3d9-3d84p), Cu I (3d104s-3d94s4p, 3d104p-3d94p2) and Zn I-like ions (3d104s2-3d94s24p, 3d104s4p-3d94s4p2) have been identified. Classification was based on isoelectronic sequence analysis and on comparison with ab-initio relativistic calculations. A collisional-radiative model of the Cu I-like ions in the plasma is used to show that the contribution of the 3d104d-3d94p4d and 3d104f-3d94f4p transition arrays to the 3d-4p spectrum is small. The importance of configuration interaction is pointed out. Computations agree with measurements within experimental uncertainty.
