and states of two electron atoms under Debye plasma screening

Extensive non-relativistic variational calculations for estimating the energy values of 2 pnd ( D o 1 , 3 ) states [ n = 3 – 6 ] of two electron atoms (He, Li + , Be 2 + ) and 2 pnp ( P e 1 ) [ n = 3 – 8 ] and 2 pnp ( P e 3 ) states [ n = 2 – 7 ] of Be 2 + under weakly coupled plasma screening have been performed using explicitly correlated Hylleraas type basis. The modified energy eigenvalues of P e 1 , 3 states arising from two p electrons of Be 2 + ion and D o 1 , 3 states due to 2 pnd configuration of Li + and Be 2 + ion in the Debye plasma environment are being reported for the first time. The effect of plasma has been incorporated through the Debye screening model. The system tends towards gradual instability and the number of bound states reduces with increasing plasma coupling strength. The wavelengths for 2 pn ′ p ( P e 1 ) [ n ′ = 3 – 8 ] → 2 pnd ( D o 1 ) [ n = 3 – 6 ] and 2 pn ′ p ( P e 3 ) [ n ′ = 2 – 8 ] → 2 pnd ( D o 3 ) [ n = 3 – 6 ] transitions in plasma embedded two electron atoms have also been reported.
