Description
Employing two state-of-the-art methods, multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock and second-order many-body perturbation theory, the excitation energies and lifetimes for the lowest 200 states of the 2s^2^2p^4^, 2s2p^5^, 2p^6^, 2s^2^2p^3^3s, 2s^2^2p^3^3p, 2s^2^2p^3^3d, 2s2p^4^3s, 2s2p^4^3p, and 2s2p^4^3d configurations, and multipole (electric dipole (E1), magnetic dipole (M1), and electric quadrupole (E2)) transition rates, line strengths, and oscillator strengths among these states are calculated for each O-like ion, from CrXVII to ZnXXIII. Our two data sets are compared with the National Institute of Standards and Technology and CHIANTI compiled values, and previous calculations. The data are accurate enough for identification and deblending of new emission lines from the Sun and other astrophysical sources. The amount of high-accuracy data is significantly increased for the n=3 states of several O-like ions of astrophysical interest, where experimental data are very scarce.
