We report on large ab initio calculation for the –4s4p transitions in the Zinc-like sequence, using the multi-configuration
Dirac-Hartree-Fock method. Results for fine-structure energy levels, the wavelengths, transition rates and lifetimes between Z = 70 (Yb)
and Z= 92 (U) are presented and compared with other theories and experiments. The calculated values including core-valence correlation are found to be similar and to compare very well with other theories and experiments values. We believe that our extensive calculated values can guide experimentalists in identifying the fine-structure levels in their future work.
