Experimental M1 transition rates in K XI

Description

Transition probabilities of three magnetic dipole (M1) transitions in multiply charged ions of potassium have been measured using the Livermore electron beam ion trap EBIT-2. Our results for the atomic level lifetimes are 4.44±0.10 ms for K XI (F-like) 2s22p52P1/2o, 4.47±0.10 ms for K XV (B-like) 2s22p 2P3/2o, and 7.6±0.5 ms for K XVI (Be-like) 2s2p 3P2o. The results confirm the accuracy of most predictions to within 3% of ground-state and 7% of excited-state transitions
