Abstract
X-ray and Auger transition rates, X-ray wavelengths, lifetimes, and fluores cence yields have been computed for variously ionized neon atoms with one e lectron in the Is shell and every possible number of electrons in the 2s an d 2p shells. The atomic model used is the self-consistent Hartree-Fock mode l with the inclusion of effects arising from the spin-orbit coupling. The r esults from the present calculation has been compared with those available in the literature. Good agreement is found in transition rates. Both the X- ray and the Anger transition rates increase as the total number of spectato r elections in the 2s and 2p shells increase, whereas the fluorescence yiel ds decrease with the total number of spectator electrons. The configuration -average atomic parameters calculated from the scaling law often used to in terpret experimental spectra, are tested against those computed from indivi dual transitions. The configuration-average transition rates and fluorescen ce yields obtained from individual transition rates vary significantly from those obtained using approximate scaling laws.
