Description

We present theoretical predictions for iridium Kα1,2, Kβ1,3 and Kβ2 energy shifts as a function of outer-shell stripping, evaluated using the multiconfiguration Dirac–Fock method including Breit interaction and QED corrections. The energy shifts are consistent with the K-lines emitted by the plasma made in the plasma-filled rod pinch, and potentially relevant to diagnostics of high-energy density laser-produced plasmas as studied in connection with the National Ignition Facility.
