Abstract
AbstractFluorine‐like to sodium‐like xenon ions were investigated by wavelength‐dispersive x‐ray spectrometry at the Dresden Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT) working at room temperature. In addition to the precise measurement of the L x‐ray transition energies following ionization, excitation and recombination processes in the highly charged xenon ions, the spectra were analyzed for different gas pressures in the trap. Multiconfiguration Dirac‐Fock calculations are introduced that were applied to the energies, transition probabilities and excitation cross‐sections. The production of neon‐like xenon ions was demonstrated even at very high gas pressures. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
