The Calculation of Transition Probabilities in Singly Ionized Argon (Ar II)

In this study, the electric dipole transition probability values between some levels in singly ionized argon (Ar II) have been calculated using the weakest bound electron potential model (WBEPM) theory. The Numerical Coulomb Approximation (NCA) and the numerical nonrelativistic Hartree-Fock (NRHF) wave functions for the expectation values of radii in the determination of parameters needed for calculations have been used. Energy levels have been taken from NIST database. The obtained transition probability values have been compared with results in the literature and, good agreement have been obtained
