X-Ray Spectroscopy of Laser-Produced L-Series Lines

Abstract

High intensity, frequency-tripled, focused light from a multibeam laser system (OMEGA) was utilized to generate plasma of highly-ionized atoms. This work involves the accurate wavelength measurements of 2p-3d,3s,4d,4s lines in L-series spectra of transition elements. The data were collected with high- resolution x-ray spectrographs. The observed lines were classified based on ab initio, atomic structure calculations using adjusted Slater parameters. The spectral results are presented as isoelectronic sequences of the observed and calculated wavelengths for the Li-, Be-, and B-like stages of ionization from atomic numbers 22 (Ti) through 32 (Ge). X Ray spectroscopy, Laser produced plasmas, Lithium, Beryllium, Boron, Germanium.
