Abstract

The methods introduced into the theory of atomic spectra by Racah are applied to the calculation of electric quadrupole line strengths for transitions involving d and s electrons. The transitions considered are of the types dn−dn−1s, dn−1s−dn−1s and dn−1s−dn−2s2. Sum rules and rules for almost closed shells are obtained. Detailed numerical results are given for various transitions in and between the configurations d9 and d8s, and d7, d6s and d5s2.
