Atomic parameters for Ne-like Ag collisional excitation X-ray laser simulations

摘要

Neon-like ions have long been recognized as candidates for producing Soft X-Ray Lasers along (1s~22s~22p~5) 3p J=2 → 3s J=1 lines. Recent experiments using exploding-foil targets have been performed at CEL-V and demonstrated ASE in silver. We present here calculations of atomic data: energy levels and wavelengths, decay rates, collision strengths, dielectronic line factors... which arc needed to provide accurate simulations.
