Si I - VERSION 11.0.1


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

  1. si_1.elvlc (energy levels)
  2. contains the energy levels (in cm-1). It includes both experimental and theoretical values of the levels energies.

    Theoretical energies from: Dufresne, R.P., Del Zanna, G., Storey, P.J., 2021, MNRAS, 505, 3968
    
    Produced using Autostructure and including level energy corrections based on NIST for all levels
    except 36. Correcting the last level affected A-values adversely.

  3. si_1.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 data from: Tachiev G. I., Froese Fischer C., 2002, A&A, 385, 716,
     supplemented by data from ATSP2K and Autostructure calculations produced for 
     Dufresne, R.P., Del Zanna, G., Storey, P.J., 2021, MNRAS, 505, 3968
    
     Autostructure included level energy corrections based on NIST for all levels
     except 36. Correcting the last level affected A-values adversely.
     
     Used gf and A values for 36 -> 1,2,3,4,5 from AS because they better match Sandlin et al (1986) observed intensity ratios.
