Effects of spin-forbidden resonances on the recombination of Be-like Si and Be-like Ne

• Recombination through doubly excited states that can be formed only through spin-flip of the excited electrons can give very strong contributions to the recombination rate of Be-like ions. We demonstrate this, in this paper, with the electron-ion recombination spectra of Be-like Ne(6+) and Be-like Si(10+), recently measured at the CRYRING storage ring. These resonances have significant effects on the plasma rate coefficients. We show that neglect or imprecise calculation of these resonances is responsible for large spreads observed between various theoretical results from the literature.
