Description

Systematic multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock results are presented for the transition probabilities and excited-state lifetimes in the term system of the boron atom. Particularly, the interaction between the 1s22s2p2 configuration and the 1s22s2ns 2S and 1s22s2nd 2D Rydberg series is considered. Term energies and transition-matrix elements are calculated to convergence using increasing active sets of s, p, d, f, and g orbitals
