Abstract

Energies of 6s2npj (n=69), 6s2ns12 (n=79), 6s2ndj (n=68), and 6s2nf52 (n=56) states in TlI and PbII are obtained using relativistic many-body perturbation theory. Reduced matrix elements, oscillator strengths, transition rates, and lifetimes are determined for the 72 possible 6s2nlj6s2nlj electric-dipole transitions. Electric-quadrupole and magnetic-dipole matrix elements are evaluated to obtain 6s2np326s2mp12 (n,m=6,7) transition rates. Hyperfine constants A are evaluated for 6s2npj (n=69), 6s2ns12 (n=79), and 6s2ndj (n=68) states in Tl205. First-, second-, third-, and all-order corrections to the energies and matrix elements and first- and second-order Breit corrections to energies are calculated. In our implementation of the all-order method, single and double excitations of Dirac-Fock wave functions are included to all orders in perturbation theory. These calculations provide a theoretical benchmark for comparison with experiment and theory.
