Lifetimes and Transition-probabilities of the Boron Atom Calculated With the Active-space Multiconfiguration Hartree-fock Method

• Systematic multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock results are presented for the transition probabilities and excited-state lifetimes in the term system of the boron atom. Particularly, the interaction between the 1s(2)2s2p2 configuration and the 1s(2)2s2ns2S and 1s(2)2s2nd2D Rydberg series is considered. Term energies and transition-matrix elements are calculated to convergence using increasing active sets of s, p, d, f, and g orbitals.
