Parity nonconservation in dielectronic recombination of multiply charged ions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss a parity nonconserving (PNC) asymmetry in the cross section of dielectronic recombination of polarized electrons on multiply charged ions with Z & 40. This effect is strongly enhanced for close doubly-excited states of opposite parity in the intermediate compound ion. Such states are known for He-like ions. However, these levels have large energy and large radiative widths which hampers observation of the PNC asymmetry. We argue that accidentally degenerate states of the more complex ions may be more suitable for the corresponding experiment. PACS numbers: 32.80.Ys,34.80.Lx,11.30.Er

We discuss a parity nonconserving asymmetry in the cross section of KLL dielectronic recombination of polarized electrons on the hydrogen-like ions with Z ∼ 60. This effect is strongly enhanced because of the near-degeneracy of doubly-excited 2l2l states of opposite parity in He-like ions. For ions with Z ∼ 30 the asymmetry is of the order of 10. For Z ≈ 48 a level crossing takes place, leading...
متن کاملEvidence for strong Breit interaction in dielectronic recombination of highly charged heavy ions.
Resonant strengths have been measured for dielectronic recombination of Li-like iodine, holmium, and bismuth using an electron beam ion trap. By observing the atomic number dependence of the state-resolved resonant strength, clear experimental evidence has been obtained that the importance of the generalized Breit interaction (GBI) effect on dielectronic recombination increases as the atomic nu...
متن کاملThe role of inner-shell excitations in electron recombination with complex multicharged ions
We performed an overview of the inner shell excitation phenomena in the study of electron recombination with multiply charged complex ions such as Au (q=49-52) and Pb. It is found the the inner shell excitations play a significant role in the low energy electron recombination. Taking into account these inner shell excitations we have calculated the energy avaraged capture cross sections. The di...
متن کاملProspects for parity-nonconservation experiments with highly charged heavy ions.
We discuss the prospects for parity non-conservation experiments with highly charged heavy ions. Energy levels and parity mixing for heavy ions with two to five electrons are calculated. We investigate two-photontransitions and the possibility to observe interference effects between weakmatrix elements and Stark matrix elements for periodic electric field configurations.
متن کاملDielectronic satellite spectra of heliumlike iron and nickel from the unified recombination method
It is shown that resonances in the unified recombination cross sections correspond directly to dielectronic satellite spectra. Positions, intensities, and profiles of satellite lines may be obtained accurately using the Breit-Pauli R-matrix method and the unified theory of total electron-ion recombination. The intrinsic dielectronic resonance strength corresponding to autoionizing resonances is...
