Abstract

We have calculated the electric dipole (E1) and magnetic quadrupole (M2) oscillator strengths and spontaneous decay rates for the spin-changing transitions of helium-like C v, N vi and O vii. We added the effects of the finite nuclear mass and the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron including an extra term derived by Pachucki. For the E1 calculations we used the Breit approximation and pseudostate expansions to perform the perturbation sums over intermediate states in both the length and velocity gauge as a check on numerical accuracy and the validity of the transition operators. There is some cancellation in the corrections for the nuclear mass and the electron anomaly so that if one is included the other should not be ignored
