Hyperfine structure investigation of Mn I - Part II: Theoretical studies of the odd configurations

Abstract

The parametric method has been used to calculate the fine structure of the odd configurations 3d(5)4s4p, 3d(5)4s5p and 3d(6)4p of Mn I taking into account configuration interaction effects. Based on the results of the fine structure calculations and recent experimental hyperfine structure data, the magnetic dipole hyperfine structure is analysed using the effective-operator formalism. One-electron parameters a(nl)(kskl)(kskl = 01, 10, 12) were determined for the three configurations and theoretical predictions for the magnetic dipole hyperfine structure constants A for all levels of these configurations up to 52000cm(-1) are given.
