Transition properties of potassium atom
  We report here oscillator strengths, transition rates, branching ratios and lifetimes due to allowed transitions in potassium (K) atom. We evaluate electric dipole (E1) amplitudes using an all order relativistic many-body perturbation method. The obtained results are compared with previously available experimental and theoretical studies. Using the E1 matrix elements mentioned above and estimated from the lifetimes of the 4P states, we determine precise values of static and dynamic polarizabilities for the first five low-lying states in the considered atom. The static polarizabilities of the ground and 4P states in the present work are more precise than the available measurements in these states. Only the present work employs relativistic theory to evaluate polarizabilities in the 3D states for which no experimental results are known to compare with. We also reexamine "magic wavelengths" for the $4P_{1/2} \rightarrow 4S$ and $4P_{3/2} \rightarrow 4S$ transitions due to the linearly polarized light which are useful to perform state-insensitive trapping of K atoms.
