Abstract

Transition probabilities have been computed for the Ne i transition arrays 2p⁵3p–2p⁵4s, 2p⁵3p–2p⁵ 5s, 2p⁵4p–2p⁵5s, and 2p⁵3s–2p⁵4p. Intermediate-coupling theory, including an effective correction for configuration interaction, has been used. An absolute scale is obtained by use of the Coulomb approximation. The eigenvectors obtained in this manner give a better fit to the observed energies and Lande g values than eigenvectors obtained without configuration interaction. There is also a significant improvement of agreement of the calculated transition probabilities to the few experimental values for these arrays.
