EUV Line Identifications and Lifetime Measurements in Highly-Charged Ions of the Iron Group

Abstract

Beam-foil experiments on ions of the iron group have been done at the Bochum Dynamitron tandem accelerator. For elements Mn to Ge, prompt and delayed EUV spectra have been recorded in order to disentangle the contributions from short-lived and long-lived levels, in Cl-, S-, P- and Si-like ions. A number of decays of long-lived levels have been identified with the help of Cowan Code and MCDF calculations.
