Abstract

This communication presents the results of wavelength calculations for neon-like ions to verify the resonance condition for a recently proposed x-ray laser scheme which is resonantly photopumped by Ly-(alpha) radiation from H-like Mg and which would lase on several 2p yields 2s transitions in Ne-like Ge. The energies of the excited and ground states were obtained using multiconfigurational Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method with the employment of different methods of the energy functional optimization. Particular attention has been given to the evaluation of the correlation corrections to the transition energies of neon-like ions within the combined MCDF+MZ approach, which uses the results of the MCDF calculations along with the Z-expansion data.
