Atomic structure calculations and study of line intensity ratio for Kr XXIV

Abstract

In this work, we provide a detailed and elaborate theoretical study of atomic data along with plasma parameters for Kr XXIV. We have computed energy levels, lifetimes, and wave-function compositions for the lowest 148 fine-structure levels by implementing the multi-configuration Dirac–Fock method with the addition of quantum electrodynamics as well as Breit corrections. We have also given the radiative data among 148 levels for electric dipole (E1) transition, which lie in the extreme ultraviolet range. We have compared our calculated results with NIST and other theoretical results available in the literature and attain a good agreement. Because of the unavailability of sufficient and complete data for higher excited levels for Kr XXIV in the literature, a similar calculation has also been compiled using fully relativistic flexible atomic code (FAC) to access the credibility and integrity of our results. On the other hand, we have also presented the line intensity ratio and plasma parameters for optically thin plasma, which are not published anywhere in the literature, and we believe that our presented results may be advantageous in plasma modeling and astrophysical and fusion plasma research applications.
