“…Techniques for the determination of oscillator strengths in a multitude of atoms and low charge state ions have been reviewed by Huber and Sandeman [7]. The technique most widely employed for atomic lifetime measurements in multiply charged ions is beam-foil spectroscopy [8][9][10][11][12]. In beam-foil spectroscopy, a monoenergetic beam of fast ions of a preselected ion species is sent through a thin foil (most often carbon).…”

The decays of the 2p J=1/2 and J=3/2 levels of Li-like ions and of the 2s2p 1,3Po1 levels of Be-like ions can be used as simple-atom test beds for lifetime measurements and for the development of accurate calculations of the transition rates. We have summarized and filtered the experimental data in order to obtain consistent data sets and isoelectronic trends that can be compared to theoretical predictions. The graphical presentation of line strength data enables direct comparison and evaluation of the merit of data along extended isoelectronic sequences. From this, the precision that is necessary in future meaningful experiments can be deduced.

“…Beam-foil spectroscopy, the atomic physics study of light (and electrons) emitted by fast ion beams after they had been passed through thin foils, evolved as a technique some half a century ago [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. In principle, all charge states of all elements are accessible to study by fast-ion beam techniques, given the availability of ion sources and appropriately powerful ion accelerators [10,11].…”
