Multi-configuration Dirac–Hartree–Fock (MCDHF) and relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) calculations with the Breit interaction and quantum electrodynamical (QED) contributions were carried out in the extended optimal level scheme for the transition wavelengths, transition rates, oscillator strengths, and line strengths of the Kα X-rays from Rb XXXVI through Rb XXVIII. The results are in good agreement with the existing theoretical and experimental results. The discrepancies between the calculated energy levels and the reference values are within 0.45%, while the discrepancies between the calculation parameters for the 1s2p–1s2 transition of helium-like rubidium and the reference values are within 0.1212%. The ratio of the velocity gauge to the length gauge and dT is employed for assessing the accuracy of the calculations, and the uncertainty of the transition line strengths was evaluated using quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis methods. Moreover, additional theoretical data has been anticipated, with the expectation that it will offer reference values for laboratory plasma and astrophysics.
