Introduction Decay properties of 1s2s2p 4Po5/2 is a workbench for magnetic interactions Good case for comparing the Breit-Pauli approximation with models based on the Dirac equation !
Codes used • Breit-Pauli approximation: SUPERSTRUCTURE (M1 & M2) AUTOSTRUCTURE (Auger & M1) • Dirac equation: GRASP (M1 & M2) MDF-GME (M1, M2 & Auger)
SUPER/AUTOSTRUCTURE • Schrodinger equation using a scaled TFD potential, V(r). • Magnetic interactions (1 & 2-body): spin-orbit, spin-other-orbit, spin-spin, spin-contact, orbit-orbit. • CI: single and double-excitations up to n=3 • Orthogonal orbitals • DW approximation for the Auger • Z=3,4,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,16,18,20,22,23,25,26, 30,36,54,67,80,92
GRASP • Multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock method • Breit interaction + QED corrections • CI: S&D-excitations up to n=3 • Orthogonal orbitals • Z=4,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,16,18,20,22,23,25,26,30,36,54,67,80,92
MDF-GME • MCDF method • Breit interaction + QED corrections • CI: S&D-excitations up to n=4 (M1&M2); up to n=5 (Auger) • Non-orthogonal orbitals • DW approximation • Z=16,18,26
Conclusion Breakdown of the B-P approximation (discord with Dirac theory > 20%): M1 for Z > 36 (Kr) M2 for Z > 54 (Xe) Auger for Z > 80 (Pb)
