Abstract

We present the results of studying the radiation decay processes and computing the probabilities and oscillator strengths of radiative transitions in spectra of heavy Rydberg alkali-metal atoms. All calculations of the radiative decay (transitions) probabilities have been carried out within the generalized relativistic energy approach (which is based on the Gell-Mann and Low S-matrix formalism) and the relativistic many-body perturbation theory with using the optimized one-quasiparticle representation and an accurate accounting for the critically important exchange-correlation effects as the perturbation theory second and higher orders ones. The precise data on spectroscopic parameters (energies, reduced dipole transition matrix elements, amplitude transitions) of the radiative transitions nS1/2→n′P1/2,3/2 (n = 5, 6; n′ = 10–70), nP1/2,3.2→n′D3/2,5/2 (n = 5, 6; n′ = 10–80) in the Rydberg Rb, Cs spectra and the transitions 7S1/2-nP1/2,3/2, 7P1/2,3.2-nD3/2,5/2 (n = 20–80) in the Rydberg francium spectrum are presented. The obtained results are analyzed and discussed from viewpoint of the correct accounting for the relativistic and exchange-correlation effects. It has been shown that theoretical approach used provides an effective accounting of the multielectron exchange-correlation effects, including effect of essentially non-Coulomb grouping of Rydberg levels and others.
