The transitions 1s2s2p2 5P-1s2p3 5S0 in F VI and 1s2s2p 4P0-1s2p2 4P in F VII have been investigated using the method of beam-foil spectroscopy. The fine-structure separations have been determined for the 1s2s2p2 5P term in F VI and for both 4P terms in F VII. The results are compared with recent theoretical calculations of fine structure, based on relativistic wavefunctions, and with previous experimental data. Lifetime measurements are reported for the 1s2p2 4P5/2 level and the 1s2p3 5S20 level.
Collision-based spectroscopy of a Xe qϩ (q ϭ 6, 7) beam with a target T (T ϭ Na, Ar) has been performed in the 35-800-nm wavelength region. Twenty-five new Xe VI lines and twenty-two new Xe VII lines were classified, twelve new energy levels of Xe VI and nine new energy levels of Xe VII were established, and one energy level of Xe VI was revised from the classified transitions. The analysis was supported by Hartree-Fock calculations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
