Abstract
Using the multiconfiguration Hartree–Fock approximation within the framework of the Breit–Pauli Hamiltonian (MCHF+BP) and the relativistic Hartree–Fock (HFR) approximation, we have calculated the forbidden transition (M1 and E2) parameters such as transition energies, logarithmic weighted oscillator strengths and transition probabilities between the fine-structure levels in the ground-state configuration of 3d54s2 for atomic manganese (Mn I, Z = 25). A discussion of these calculations for manganese using MCHF+BP and HFR methods is given here.
