Abstract:

Effectiveelectronexcitationcollisionstrengths
for fine-structure forbidden transitions within the 4p (k=2-4) ground configurations of Kr III, Kr IV and Kr V have been calculated using the Breit-Pauli R-matrix technique and are tabulated in the range . The model for the system target + electron is based on a 6- (Kr III), 7- (Kr IV) and 8-state (Kr V) close-coupling representation. The comparison with the results of the semi-relativistic R-matrix method reveals the importance of full intermediate coupling especially at low electron temperatures. Our data will enable detailed quantitative analyses of collisionally excited krypton lines in the spectra of gaseous nebulae.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
