HARTREE–FOCK WAVE FUNCTIONS FOR EXCITED STATES: III. DIPOLE TRANSITIONS IN THREE-ELECTRON SYSTEMS

Abstract

Hartree–Fock wave functions for a number of S, P, and D states of the lithium isoelectronic sequence have been calculated, using a simplified procedure described in an earlier paper. Transition matrix elements for all permitted dipole transitions between these states have been computed using both the dipole length and the dipole velocity formulations. The results are in good agreement with earlier calculations.
