Abstract

The Ritz variational–perturbational method is developed for calculating relativistic energy levels of ions embedded in plasmas. With a review of the one-electron atom problem, hydrogen-like ions are studied, and He-like and Li-like ions are studied at the effective charge approximation. For the outer shell excited states, the results agree well with other theoretical results and experimental data.
