摘要：

Line intensities and oscillator strengths for the controversial 3C and 3D astrophysically relevant lines in neonlike Fe16+ ions are calculated. A large-scale configuration-interaction calculation of oscillator strengths is performed with the inclusion of higher-order electron-correlation effects, suggesting that these contributions cannot explain existing discrepancies between theory and experiment. Then, we investigate nonlinear dynamical effects, showing that, for strong x-ray sources, the modeling of the spectral lines by a peak with an area proportional to the oscillator strength is not sufficient. The dynamical effects give a possible resolution of discrepancies of theory and experiment found by recent measurements, which motivates the use of light-matter interaction models also valid for strong light fields in the analysis and interpretation of astrophysical and laboratory spectra.
