Radiative lifetime and oscillator strength determinations in XeVI

Transition probabilities have been calculated for Δ n = 0 and Δ n = 1 transitions connecting the 5s(2) nl [np ( n = 5- 8); nf ( n = 4- 5); nh ( n = 6- 8); nk ( n = 8)], 5s5pnl ( nl = 5d, 6s), 5p(3) and 5s(2) nl [(ns (n = 6- 8); nd (n = 5- 8); ng ( n = 5- 6); ni ( n = 7- 8)] and 5s5p(2) configurations of Xe VI. Core-polarization effects have been included in the framework of a Hartree-Fock approach. The accuracy of the present set of results has been assessed through comparisons with radiative lifetime measurements. Good agreement has been observed between theory and experiment.
