Photoionisation of atomic phosphorus
نویسندگان
چکیده
The photoionisation spectrum of atomic phosphorus prepared by successive abstraction reactions involving H atoms and PH,, is presented from its ionisation threshold to 765 A. Prominent autoionisation structure is observed between the fine-structure limits 3P2-3P, near the ionisation threshold. In addition, a window resonance series is seen, involving inner s-shell excitation to. .. ('S)np 4P states. Some systematic behaviour of resonance profiles and quantum defects in a series of atoms is discussed.

K-photoionisation of atomic carbon: shake up processes
We evaluate the shake up process in the K– photoionisation of atomic carbon, i.e. the 2s → 2p and 3s, and 2p → 3p shake up excitations, within the photon energy range 25 to 45 Ry. As in the atomic boron case, the 2s → 3s excitation is still relatively strong and due to configuration interaction effects dominates the 2p subshell excitation to 3p. The conjugate shake up 2s → 2p is 3% near 45 Ry, ...
متن کاملNew advances in photoionisation codes: How and what for?
The study of photoionised gas in planetary nebulae (PNe) has played a major role in the achievement, over the years, of a better understanding of a number of physical processes, pertinent to a broader range of fields than that of PNe studies, spanning from atomic physics to stellar evolution theories. Whilst empirical techniques are routinely employed for the analysis of the emission line spect...
متن کاملPhotoionisation detection of single 87Rb-atoms using channel electron multipliers
Fast and efficient detection of single atoms is a universal requirement concerning modern experiments in atom physics, quantum optics, and precision spectroscopy. In particular for future quantum information and quantum communication technologies, the efficient readout of qubit states encoded in single atoms or ions is an elementary prerequisite. The rapid development in the field of quantum op...

This requires calculation of the opacity κλ; this is the core task of a spectral synthesis program. The opacity can be considered to consist of a continuous opacity, and opacity due to atomic line transitions. The main contribution to the continuous opacity is due to bound-free and free-free H transitions; other major sources (H+2 molecule, photoionisation of metals) also need to be considered....
متن کاملEstimation of calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in diet and stool.
A procedure that is simple and convenient for general use for the estimation of calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in diet and stool is described. It includes a HNO3-HCIO4 digestion in a micro-Kjeldahl flask. Calcium subsequently may be estimated by atomic absorption spectrophotometry or by the Clark-Collip procedure, magnesium by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, and phosphorus by the metho...
