Computation of hyperfine multiplet oscillator strengths in Tantalum atom

Abstract

Background

The electronic transitions between two fine levels depend on the transition probability. The transition probability depends on spectral line strength and oscillator strength. The oscillator strength depends on the number of oscillators and their energies. In this research, we will find the oscillator strengths of hyperfine multiplets of the Tantalum atom. The oscillator strength of hyperfine multiplet investigation aims to enhance our understanding of Tantalum's spectral characteristics. This work provides valuable information in the spectroscopy of material, atomic/molecular, and astrophysics.

Result

Fourier transform spectra from ultraviolet to far infrared regions have been obtained from TUGRAZ. Fourier transform spectra give the most reliable position of the wavelength of hyperfine multiplets. The Fourier transform spectra of Tantalum contain thousands of Tantalum I and II spectral lines. Each spectral line can be characterized by its upper and lower levels and corresponding angular momenta and hyperfine constants. These properties of the spectral lines were collected from the literature. Hyperfine multiplets for each fine structure were calculated, and they revealed their spectroscopic behavior with high precision.

Conclusion

In this study, Tantalum's hyperfine multiplet oscillator strength was calculated using advanced computational techniques to address its atomic structure. The fine structure “gf” values were obtained from literature, and intensities of the multiplets were determined. They combined with the gf values to calculate the oscillator strengths of the hyperfine multiplets.
