Abstract

The combined relativistic energy approach and relativistic many-body perturbation theory with the zeroth Dirac-Fock-Sham approximation are used for computing the thermal Blackbody radiation ionization characteristics of the alkali Rydberg atoms, in particular, the sodium in Rydberg states with principal quantum number n=10-100. The detailed analysis of the data of computing ionization rates for the Rydberg sodium atom demonstrates physically reasonable agreement between the theoretical and experimental data. The accuracy of the theoretical data is provided by a correctness of the corresponding relativistic wave functions and accounting for the exchange-correlation effects.
