Calculations of energy levels, transition rates, lifetimes and Landé g factors for silicon-like Kr XXIII

The multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) method is employed to calculate excitation energies, transition rates, lifetimes and Landé g factors for the lowest 700 levels belonging to the 22 configurations 3s23p{3l,4l′}, 3s3p2{3l,4l′}, 3s23d{3d,4s,4p}, 3s{3p3d2,3d3}, 3p{3p3,3p23d,3p3d2,3d3}, 3d4 with l = 1, 2 and l′ = 0, 1, 2, 3 in Kr XXIII. The present excitation energies are compared with available experimental and theoretical values. The mean relative difference between our results and the values provided by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is only 0.05%, which suggests a good agreement. The uncertainties of the transition rates are estimated based on quantitative and qualitative evaluation method which analyzes the dependencies of the line strength S on the gauge parameter G. It is observed that 49.6% of E1 S values have uncertainties of ≤ 1% (AA) and over 82% have uncertainties of ≤ 3% (A). The present wavelengths and transition rates are compared with the experimental values and generally good agreements have been achieved. For lifetime, the present MCDHF values fall well within the range of experimental error. Comparison of the computed Landé g factors is also made with the Landé g factors in pure LS-coupling. These accurate data can be useful for fusion plasma research and astrophysical applications.
