The X-ray emission spectra from highly stripped plasma of gold has been obs
erved by focusing a Nd-glass frequency-tripled laser beam onto the surface
of the gold dot at the XINGGUANG II laser facilities. The spectra of gold i
ons in the range of 0.0003 nm-0.0004 nm was recorded using the plate PET (2
d = 0.8742 nm) crystal spectrometer. The code of average energy of relativi
stic subarrays was built on the basis of the code MCDF ( Multi-Configuratio
n-Dirac-Fock). Using the spin-orbit-split-arrays (SOSA) formalism, mean wav
elengths and full widths at half height of isolated peaks of subarrays of l
ower charged gold ions, isoelectronic with Cu,Zn,Ga and Ge, was calculated.
Twenty-six lines are interpreted, they pertain mainly to transitions of 3d
-nf (n = 5,6, 7) of gold ions from Ni-like to As-like. These results of exp
eriment and calculation have important application in plasma diagnostics an
d examination of high Z elemental atomic structure calculation.
