Abstract
A general model for the external heavy atom effect on radiative transitions within the framework of the dynamic coupling model is proposed. The two different mechanisms are considered, the spin-orbit coupling mechanism and the polarizability mechanism. The question of whether the polarizability of the heavy atom perturber determines the magnitudes of the effect is discussed.
