- A Specify The Dominant Multipole Such As E1 Electric Dipole E2 E3 M1 M2 M3 For Spontaneous Photon Emis 1 (33.66 KiB) Viewed 45 times
(a) Specify the dominant multipole (such as E1 (electric dipole), E2, E3 ..., M1, M2, M3...) for spontaneous photon emission by an excited atomic electron in each of the following transitions, 2p1/2181/21 281/27 181/2 3d3/2+281/2 2P3/2 +2P1/2 3d3/2+2P1/2 (b) Estimate the transition rate for the first of the above transitions in terms of the photon frequency w, the atomic radius a, and any other Atomic and Molecular Physics 45 necessary physical constants. Give a rough numerical estimate of this rate for a typical atomic transition. (c) Estimate the ratios of the other transition rates (for the other tran- sitions in (a)) relative to the first one in terms of the same parameters as in (b).
