Abstract

Two-photon transitions from ground state to excited and ionized states are studied. The energy levels and radial matrix elements of an
impenetrable spherically confined hydrogenic atom embedded in plasma environment are evaluated using accurate Bernstein-polynomial
(B-polynomial) method. Transition probability amplitudes, transparency frequencies and resonance enhancement frequencies for various
transitions, namely, $1s-2s$, $1s-3s$ and $1s-3d$ are evaluated for various values of confining Debye potential parameter. The effect of
spherical confinement is studied and explained.
