We report spectroscopic measurements on the 6s6p ³P₁ level of Lu⁺ at 28503.16 cm^-1. The radiative lifetime of this level was measured to be 37.4 ± 1.9 ns using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence of a slow ion beam. Branching fractions were determined from Lu spectra recorded using the 1.0 m Fourier transform spectrometer at the National Solar Observatory. Thelog(gf) values determined by combining the radiative lifetime and branching fractions for the 3507.39, 5983.90, and 6221.87 (air wavelengths) lines are - 1.16 ± 0.03, - 1.16 ± 0.06, and -0.76 ± 0.04, respectively. The 6221.87 line has been identified by Bord, Cowley, and Mirijanian (1997) as the best candidate for the determination of the solar lutetium abundance because it is only slightly blended in the solar spectrum. The present 6221.87 transition probability measurement brings their solar lutetium abundance into good agreement with the CI chondrite abundance.  相似文献   

Experimental and theoretical radiative lifetimes, branching fractions and oscillator strengths in Lu iiii

By a combination of radiative lifetimes measured using the fast-beam-laser method and experimental branching ratios deduced from Fourier transform spectrometer spectra, it has been possible to derive experimental f -values for Lu  ii lines observed in the visible and near-ultraviolet regions. These data are compared with relativistic Hartree–Fock calculations, taking core polarization effects into account, and a set of additional oscillator strengths of astrophysical interest is presented.  相似文献
