Appendix C. Parameters for Krypton and Xenon
Here the values of I p , ν, C

νl and B lm are given for the two ionization cascades in
krypton described by (B30)–(B38) and (B39)–(B47) and for the xenon case, that
can be simulated using the same set of rate equations (B25)–(B29), changing the
respective ionic state populations and their associated parameters.
The first case of Kr corresponds to ionization of the outermost orbitals (red arrows
on Fig. 8.9) and starts from the 1s
2 2s
2 2 p
6 state of Kr
26+ . The parameters of the
first ionization cascade are shown in the Table 8.1. The second one starts from the
1s
2 2s
2 2 p
2 state of Kr
30+ and accounts all pathways (shown by red and black arrows
on Fig. 8.9).
For this case one should take into account that several transitions may occur
from/to a given state. These transitions are depicted and numbered in Fig. 8.10. The
respective parameters are presented in Table 8.2.
Finally, we run the same system of rate equations (B25)–(B29) for xenon starting
from the ground state configuration 1s
2 2s
2 of the Xe
50+ ion. The parameters are
shown the Table 8.3.
Fig. 8.10 Same as on Fig. 8.9 but for the initial ground state 1s 2 2s 2 2 p 2 . See the text for details
about the numeration of transitions and their parameters
