Auger–dominant metastable states in the antiprotonic helium atom
نویسنده
چکیده
Auger dominant metastable states in the antiprotonic helium atoms are studied by using the Complex Coordinate Rotation method. Relativistic corrections for the bound electron related to the Breit interaction have been calculated using CCR wave functions. Higher order relativistic and QED effects have been included into consideration to get precise theoretical values for transition frequencies.

Laser spectroscopic studies of state-dependent collisional quenching of the lifetimes of metastable antiprotonic helium atoms
A laser spectroscopic method was developed to directly observe the lifetimes of individual states in metastable antiprotonic helium atoms ( p̄ He). Collisional effects with surrounding helium atoms were studied in cryogenic gas targets at pressures between 0.1 and 9.0 bars and at temperatures between 5.5 and 7.0 K. The metastable state (n ,l )5(39,35) showed a lifetime of 1.5 ms, regardless of d...
متن کاملDetermining the antiproton magnetic moment from measurements of the hyperfine structure of antiprotonic helium
Recent progress in the spectroscopy of antiprotonic helium has allowed for measuring the separation between components of the hyperfine structure (HFS) of the (37, 35) metastable states with an accuracy of 300 MHz, equivalent to a relative accuracy of 3.10. The analysis of the uncertainties of the available theoretical results on the antiprotonic helium HFS shows that the accuracy of the value ...
متن کاملSpectroscopy of antiprotonic helium atoms and its contribution to the fundamental physical constants
Antiprotonic helium atom, a metastable neutral system consisting of an antiproton, an electron and a helium nucleus, was serendipitously discovered, and has been studied at CERN's antiproton decelerator facility. Its transition frequencies have recently been measured to nine digits of precision by laser spectroscopy. By comparing these experimental results with three-body QED calculations, the ...

Abstract A consistent quantum mechanical calculation of partial cross sections leading to different final states of antiprotonic helium atom was performed. For the four-body scattering wave function, corresponding to the initial state, as well as for the antiprotonic helium wave function, appearing in the final state, adiabatic approximations were used. Further, symmetric and non-symmetric effe...
متن کاملX-ray transitions from antiprotonic noble gases
The onset of antiprotonic X–ray transitions at high principal quantum numbers and the occurence of electronic X–rays in antiprotonic argon, krypton, and xenon has been analyzed with the help of Multiconfiguration Dirac–Fock calculations. The shell–by–shell ionisation by Auger electron emission, characterised by appearance and disappearance of X–ray lines, is followed through the antiprotonic ca...
