Spectral properties of helium-like ions under strongly coupled plasma conditions

摘要

Systematic investigations have been performed to study the effect of strongly coupled plasma on the dynamic polarizabilities, low-lying energy levels, oscillator strengths, and transition probabilities for the helium isoelectronic ions Li-, Be2+, B3+, C4+, N5+, O6+, F7+, and Ne8+. An ion-sphere (IS) model of the plasma has been adopted and time-dependent perturbation theory has been applied to calculate the energy levels and other transition properties. Systematic trend is observed for the spectroscopic properties along the isoelectronic sequence under a given plasma strength and also for a given ion under different plasma strengths. The ionization potential for a given ion is found to decrease, and the number of bound excited states has become finite under increased plasma strengths. The spectral line shifts under such plasma environment have been calculated. (C) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
