Relativistic effective valence shell Hamiltonian method: excitation and ionization energies of heavy metal atoms.
The relativistic effective valence shell Hamiltonian H(v) method (through second order) is applied to the computation of the low lying excited and ion states of closed shell heavy metal atoms/ions. The resulting excitation and ionization energies are in favorable agreement with experimental data and with other theoretical calculations. The nuclear magnetic hyperfine constants A and lifetimes tau of excited states are evaluated and they are also in accord with experiment. Some of the calculated quantities have not previously been computed.
