Ma. Bautista, ATOMIC DATA FROM THE IRON PROJECT .20. PHOTOIONIZATION CROSS-SECTIONSAND OSCILLATOR-STRENGTHS FOR FE-I, Astronomy & Astrophysics. Supplement series, 122(1), 1997, pp. 167-176
Large-scale close coupling calculations for photoionization cross sect
ions and dipole transition probabilities for Fe I are reported. The ca
lculation included 52 LS terms of the target ion Fe II dominated by th
e configurations 3d(6)4s, 3d(7), 3d(6)4p, 3d(5)4s(2), and 3d(5)4s4p. T
he eigenfunction expansion of Fe II accounts for the photoionization o
f the outer 4s subshell, as well as the open inner 3d subshell, of the
ground state 3d(6)4s(2 5)D of Fe I. The results include energy levels
for 1,117 LS bound states of Fe I, with n less than or equal to 10 an
d l less than or equal to 7, 32 316 dipole oscillator strengths for tr
ansitions among the LS multiplets, and detailed photoionization cross
sections, with extensive resonance structures, for all computed bound
states. The present photoionization cross section for the ground state
is up to three orders of magnitude higher than earlier results from c
entral field type approximations, but it agrees reasonably well with t
he cross section previously calculated using many-body perturbation th
eory.
