Abstract :

[en] Aims. In the context of accretion disks around black holes, we estimate plasma-environment effects on the atomic parameters associated with the decay of K-vacancy states in highly charged iron ions, namely Feâ XVII-Feâ XXV. Methods. Within the relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) framework, the electron-nucleus and electron-electron plasma screenings were approximated with a time-Averaged Debye-Hückel potential. Results. Modified ionization potentials, K thresholds, wavelengths, radiative emission rates, and Auger widths are reported for astrophysical plasmas characterized by electron temperatures and densities in the ranges 105â-Â 107 K and 1018â-Â 1022 cm-3, respectively. Conclusions. We conclude that the high-resolution microcalorimeters on board future X-ray missions such as XRISM and ATHENA are expected to be sensitive to the lowering of the iron K edge due to the extreme plasma conditions occurring in accretion disks around compact objects. © ESO 2019.
