Abstract (from CDS):
We develop a two-dimensional B-spline approach in the cylindrical coordinate system to simulate spectra of lithium in magnetic fields of white dwarf stars. The advantage of the current approach is that it can be applied to calculate both low- and high-lying states, while the theoretical methods for describing magnetized lithium in the literature are limited to the treatment of the ground state and low-lying excited states. The magnetized atomic states are calculated with symmetries 20+, 20–, 2(-1)+, 2(-1)–, and 2(-2)+, and the lowest 10 atomic states of each symmetry are involved. The magnetic field strengths stride a scope of field strengths of white dwarf stars. Atomic data of absorption spectra corresponding to transitions from the ground state or low-lying excited states to high-lying excited states are reported for magnetized lithium. These atomic data include energy levels, wavelengths, and oscillator strengths. Comparison is made between our results, and theoretical and experimental data reported in the literature. The current two-dimensional B-spline approach can systematically produce atomic data to model discrete atomic spectra of both low- and high-lying states of lithium in magnetic white dwarf stars.
