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
    accurate to 10% and 20%, respectively, except for a few transitions in
    ions with Z<=7 that are perturbed by admixture with low-lying n=3
    states (e.g. 2s^2^3l) and for those affected by the avoided crossing
    of the 2s2p^2^ ^2^S1/2 and ^2^P1/2 which takes place at Z~22. It is
    concluded that, statistically, the present dataset is the most
    accurate to date for this astrophysically relevant sequence.
