Abstract

Radiative rates for electric quadrapole (E2) and magnetic dipole (M1) transitions among the lowest 32 levels belonging to the 3d6 configuration of doubly charged iron (Fe III) are calculated using our recently generated (Deb and Hibbert 2007 J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 40 F251) J-dependent configuration interaction (CI) wavefunctions. These results are then compared with other available theoretical calculations. It is found that there are large disagreements among various calculations for many of the transitions, with the present A-values for E2 and M1 transitions often significantly higher than the corresponding values in other calculations.
