Forbidden transitions in the near-UV and visible wavelength of highly charged tungsten (W) ions are potentially useful as novel tungsten diagnostics means of fusion plasmas. Emission lines in 290–360 nm from Wq+ ions interacting with an electron beam of 540–1370 eV are measured, using a compact electron-beam-ion-trap. The charge states of 64 lines are identified as W20+–W29+. A magnetic-dipole (M1) line of W29+ between the excited states (4d84f)[(4d5/2−2)44f7/2]13/2→[(4d5/2−2)44f5/2]13/2 is newly identified; the wavelength is determined as 351.03(10) nm in air. The theoretical wavelength calculated using the multiconfiguration Dirac–Hartree–Fock method is in a good agreement with the measurement.
