Abstract
We calculate the oscillator strengths of some transitions for the alkalilike ions in the Dirac–Fock approximation. The oscillator strengths calculated have included a nonlocal term derived previously by Feldman and Fulton from quantum electrodynamics. The numerical values of the length and velocity forms are shown to be equal. Most results of the present calculation are in good agreement with the available experimental data. Thus the formalism, with no parameters to be adjusted in contrast to the semiempirical methods, offers a simple and effective way to obtain qualitatively satisfactory oscillator strengths for large alkalilike ions.
