Abstract

The electric dipole oscillator strengths for multiplet and individual lines between some doublet and quartet levels have been calculated using the weakest bound electron potential model theory (WBEPMT) in singly ionized oxygen. We employed both numerical Coulomb approximation (NCA) wave functions and numerical non-relativistic Hartree-Fock (NRHF) wave functions for expectation values of radii in determination of parameters. The calculated oscillator strengths have been compared with available theoretical and experimental results. A good agreement with results in literature has been obtained. Moreover, oscillator strengths not existing in the literature for some highly excited levels have been obtained using this method.
