N III - VERSION 11.0.1


The CHIANTI database has the following primary ASCII files for this ion:

  1. n_3.elvlc (energy levels)
  2. contains the energy levels (in cm-1). It includes both experimental and theoretical values of the levels energies.

     
    
    Theoretical energies:
     G Y Liang, N R Badnell and G Zhao,  A&A 547, A87 (2012)
          DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201220277
          
          Observed energies: Kramida, A., Ralchenko, Yu., Reader, J., and NIST ASD Team (2012). NIST Atomic Spectra Database (ver. 5.0), [Online]. Available: http://physics.nist.gov/

  3. n_3.wgfa (radiative data)
  4. contains wavelengths, gf and A values of the transitions. The wavelengths are based on the experimental energy levels and should be the best available. Wavelengths calculated from the theoretical energies are of an indeterminate accuracy and their values are presented as negative values of the calculated wavelength.

     
    
    
    Theoretical energies, gf and A-values:
    G Y Liang, N R Badnell and G Zhao  A&A 547, A87 (2012)
       DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201220277
    
    Note: only transitions with a branching ratio above 10^-5 
    have been retained.
    
    A-values for transitions from levels 3-20 are from Correge, G. & Hibbert, A. 2004, ADNDT, 86, 19

  5. n_3.scups (electron collision data)
  6. contains the effective electron collision strengths scaled according to the rules formulated by Burgess and Tully (1992).
