Transition Parameters for Doubly Ionized Lutetium

Abstract

Using the relativistic Hartree-Fock method developed by Cowan, we calculated the electric dipole (E1) transition parameters such as the wavelengths, the weighted oscillator strengths, and the transition probabilities (or rates) for doubly ionized lutetium (Lu III, Z = 71). We compared the results with available calculations and experiments in literature. A discussion of these calculations for Lu III in this study has also been made in view of the relativistic Hartree-Fock method.
