Transition energies and rates of K, L, and M X-ray lines from electric-dipole transition of americium have been calculated using GRASP2K code based on the Dirac-Hartee-Fock method. The effects of the Breit interaction, vacuum polarization and self energy were taken into account. It is found that the present results agree within 0.04% with other experimental and theoretical values. Furthermore, we also calculated transition energies and rates of the K-, L-, and M-shell hole states of americium ions with charge states Am¹⁺-Am⁶⁺ for the first time. It is found that the transition energies and rates change slightly relative to the corresponding results of americium atoms, which indicates that the outermost electrons can hardly affect inner-shell transition properties.
