Hyperfine induced 1s2s^1S_0 -> 1s^2^1S_0 M1 transition of He-like ions

• Hyperfine induced SS0 M1 transition probabilities of He-like ions have been calculated from relativistic configuration interaction wavefunctions including the frequency independent Breit interaction and QED effects. Present results for 151Eu and 155Gd are in good agreement with previous calculations [L.N. Labzowsky et al., Phys. Rev. A 63, 054105 (2001)]. Electronic data are given in terms of a general scaling law in Z that, given isotopic nuclear spin and magnetic moment, allows hyperfine induced decay rates to be estimated for any isotope. The results should be helpful for future experimental investigations on QED and parity non-conservation effects.
