Lifetime measurements of odd-parity high-excitation levels of Sn I by time-resolved laser spectroscopy
Natural radiative lifetimes of 38 odd-parity highly excited levels in neutral tin in the energy range from 43 682.737 to 56 838.68 cm−1 have been measured by a time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique in an atomic beam produced by laser ablation on a solid tin sample. All the levels were excited from the metastable P1,2 and D2 levels in the ground configuration. The second and third h...
متن کاملRadiative lifetimes in Co I
New radiative-lifetime measurements based on time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence are reported for 133 odd-parity and 2 even-parity levels of Co I, ranging in energy from 28 300 to 59 400 cm–1. Our lifetimes agree with earlier, but much less extensive, lifetime measurements based on laser-induced fluorescence. Satisfactory agreement is also found with the critical compilation of atomic tran...
متن کاملExperimental lifetime determination in neutral praseodymium (Pr I) and neodymium (Nd I)
Radiative lifetime measurements have been performed, with a time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique, for 18 even-parity levels of Pr I and 15 odd-parity levels of Nd I. The new results are compared with the few experimental data available in the literature and good agreement is found. However, fragmentary knowledge of the spectra prevents reliable calculation of branching fractions a...
متن کاملUnusually large polarizabilities and “new” atomic states in Ba
Electric polarizabilities of four low-J even-parity states and three low-J odd-parity states of atomic barium in the range 35, 600 to 36, 000 cm−1 are investigated. The states of interest are excited (in an atomic beam) via an intermediate odd-parity state with a sequence of two laser pulses. The odd-parity states can be excited due to the Stark-induced mixing with even-parity states. The polar...
متن کاملTime-resolved laser spectroscopy of multiply ionized atoms: natural radiative lifetimes in Ce IV.
Radiative lifetimes have been measured for two excited levels of Ce IV using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique. Ce3+ ions were produced in a laser-induced plasma. In the measurements, a suitable magnetic field was applied to reduce the recombination between electrons and the ions and thus the background light from the recombination, and special care was exercised to avoid f...
