We measured the spontaneous-emission branching fractions of 46 levels in Nd II, selectively populated via single-frequency laser excitation of a 10 keV ion beam. The levels studied had term energies up to 29 955 cm–1, and decay branches with spontaneous emission in the range 372–850 nm were detected. The experimental accuracy for branching fractions over 0.1 was ~7%. We used these branching fractions along with our previously determined radiative lifetimes to infer transition probabilities and oscillator strengths for 430 transitions, which are useful for stellar abundance determinations.

Abstract Radiative lifetimes of 19 levels in Re I were measured using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence method. As far as we know, 15 results are reported for the first time. By combining the experimental lifetimes determined from the present work with theoretical branching fractions obtained by a pseudo-relativistic Hartree–Fock model including core-polarization contributions, a new set of semi-empirical transition probabilities and oscillator strengths for 47 Re I lines from 18 newly measured levels were derived.
