Abstract

The spectroscopic study of forbidden transitions in ions of astrophysical interest has been performed using an extension of the well-established relativistic quantum defect orbital (RQDO) method. The method has so far proved to be a very useful tool for predicting a large body of electron transition probabilities, and other related properties. The RQDO method has been applied to the study of E2 transitions in the spectra of ions relevant in astrophysics, such as Ti XII, Fe XVI, Co XVII and Ni XVIII.
