Abstract:
A simplified relativistic configuration interaction method is used to calculate the dielectronic recombination cross sections and rate coefficients for heliumlike carbon. In this method, the infinite resonant doubly excited states can be treated conveniently in the frame of Quantum Defect Theory. Our calculated cross sections are in agreements with the experimental measurements except for the 1s2lnl'(n=6,7) resonances. The total energy-integrated cross sections and rate coefficients over all dielectronic resonances are in agreements with the experimental measurements within percent.
