Abstract
The spectrum of the solar corona, plasma spectra, astrophysical objects and fusion devices exhibit forbidden lines in alkali-like ions. Ions belonging to the iron group are particularly important in this respect. More accurate data for term values, line strengths and transition probabilities are reported for electric quadrupole (E2) transitions in the highly stripped ion CoXVII using highly correlated relativistic wavefunctions obtained by coupled cluster theory. The present results are consistent with the findings of the earlier theoretical data. Some of the data are reported for the first time.

Key words: astrophysics, abundances, corona, stellar, forbidden E2-transition probability, highly stripped ion

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
