Energy levels, lifetimes, and transition probabilities for Mn XII and Ge XIX

Abstract

Energy levels, transition probabilities, oscillator strengths, line strengths, and lifetimes have been calculated for silicon-like manganese and germanium, Mn XII and Ge XIX. The configurations 3s23p2, 3s3p3, 3s23p3d, 3s3p23d, and 3p4 were used in the calculations and 88 fine-structure levels were obtained. The fully relativistic GRASP code has been adopted, and results are reported for all electric dipole, electric quadrupole, magnetic dipole, and magnetic quadrupole transitions among levels of Mn XII and Ge XIX. Comparisons have been made with available theoretical and experimental results.
