## TL;DR

This study investigates how plasma environments influence atomic parameters of K-vacancy states in highly charged iron ions, using advanced computational methods relevant for astrophysical phenomena like black hole accretion disks.

## Contribution

It introduces a multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock approach with Debye-Hückel potential to estimate plasma effects on atomic data for highly charged iron ions.

## Key findings

- Ionization potentials are affected by plasma conditions.
- Transition energies show measurable shifts in plasma environments.
- Radiative emission rates are modified by plasma effects.

## Abstract

The main goal of the present work is to estimate the effects of plasma environment on the atomic parameters associated with the K-vacancy states in highly charged iron ions within the astrophysical context of accretion disks around black holes. In order to do this, multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock computations have been carried out by considering a time averaged Debye-H\"uckel potential for both the electron-nucleus and electron-electron interactions. In the present paper, a first sample of results related to the ionization potentials, the K-thresholds, the transition energies and the radiative emission rates is reported for the ions Fe 23+ and Fe 24+ .
