COMPARISON OF ATOMIC DATA MODELING WITH EXPERIMENTAL INTENSITIES

摘要

Results of the statistical modem for the global description of Resolved Transition Arrays are compared, for the first time, with the distribution of the experimental line intensities of a whole spectrum, namely, the Fe l spectrum. In this spectrum, the density of the lines was found long ago to follow a power law versus intensity. The statistical model is applied, using two different assumptions for the configuration populations. In both assumptions, a power law is found, with a 20/100 discrepancy for the power.
