Multiplatform Computing of Transition Probabilities in Os V

Osmium is an element of the Periodic Table with an atomic number Z equal to 76. In Tokamaks with divertors made of tungsten ((Formula presented.)), it is produced in the neutron-induced transmutation of the latter. Therefore one can expect that their sputtering may generate ionic impurities of all possible charge states in the fusion plasma. As a consequence, these could contribute to radiation losses in these controlled nuclear devices. The knowledge of radiative rates in all the spectra of osmium is thus important in this field. In this framework, a multiplatform approach has been used to determine the Os V radiative properties and estimate their accuracy. The transition probabilities have been computed for the 2677 electric dipole (E1) transitions falling in the spectral range from 400 Å to 12,000 Å. Three independent atomic structure models have been considered; one based on the fully relativistic ab initio multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) method and two based on the semi-empirical pseudo-relativistic Hartree–Fock (HFR) method.
