Abstract:As part of the IRON Project, radiative rates have been calculated for the E1, E2 and M1 transitions within the n=2 complex in ions of the boron isoelectronic sequence (6<=Z<=28). The computations have been carried out with the atomic structure code SUPERSTRUCTURE which facilitates the generation of extended radiative datasets including configuration interaction, Breit-Pauli relativistic contributions and semi-empirical term-energy corrections. By means of extensive comparisons with the available datasets for this sequence, with detailed single-ion calculations and recent experiments, we have been able to assign accuracy ratings to the present A-values. We find that in general the spin-allowed and spin-forbidden E1 transitions are
