Fourier Transform Spectrum

Experimental investigations of Pr I spectral lines were performed by means of laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy, using a hollow cathode discharge lamp as source of free atoms. The wavelengths for the laser excitation were found by the help of a highly resolved Fourier transform spectrum. Altogether we excited 236 unclassified lines and analysed their hyperfine structure, which led, together with the measured wavelengths of the observed fluorescence lines, to the discovery of 32 new even parity and 38 odd parity fine structure energy levels. These levels allow to classify more than 670 spectral lines of Pr I. The wave number calibrated Fourier transform spectrum allowed us to determine the energies of most of these newly discovered levels with an uncertainty of 0.015 cm-1. Angular momenta, parity, and magnetic and electric hyperfine interaction constants (A and B) of the new levels were also determined.

We report the discovery of about 140 new energy levels of the neutral praseodymium atom, found by means of laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy. Their energy has been determined with an uncertainty of 0.010 cm−1 using a wave number calibrated Fourier-transform spectrum.

Fourier Transform Spectrum

We report on a complete optogalvanic spectrum of a discharge burning in a La-Ar gas mixture, in the spectral range 5610–6110 Å (17,851 to 16,364 cm−1). About 1900 overlapping laser scans, each between 1 and 1.5 cm−1 wide, were necessary to cover this range. The resolution of the spectra is limited by the Doppler width of the spectral features to about 0.03 cm−1 (or ca. 0.01 Å) and is comparable with a Fourier-transform spectrum, but the sensitivity is much higher. Indeed, we could find more than 1800 lines, from which about 800 could be classified as transitions between known energy levels. The main focus of the investigations was to discover previously unknown energy levels by means of excitation of unclassified spectral features.

Bombarding Energy

The reactions 48Ti(α,p)51V at ten bombarding energies between 8.25 and 10.75 MeV and 50Ti(3He,d)51V at 10 MeV bombarding energy have been studied. Energy levels of 51V up to 4.85 and 6.17 MeV have been observed by (α,p) and (3He,d) reactions respectively. The (α,p) reaction yielded many new energy levels. The angular distributions for deuterons were measured at lab angles between 15° and 120°, and compared with predictions of DWBA calculations using the TSALLY code from which the transferred angular momenta and spectroscopic factors were deduced. These experimental results are examined from the viewpoint of shell model and strong coupling rotator model calculations. The effect of changing various optical model parameters is also discussed.

The spectrum of Zn II has been extended to complete the configuration 3d94s(3D)4p′ and 3d94s(1D)4p″. The configurations 3d109f, 3d1010f, and 3d94s(3D)5s′ have been added and a number of levels of the configurations 3d94s(3D)4d′, 3d94s(1D)4d″, and 3d94s(3D)6s′ have been tentatively established. Our list of Zn II lines contains 363 classified lines.Improved wavelength measurements have necessitated a revision of our earlier report on the spectrum of Zn IV. All the energy levels have been shifted slightly with respect to the ground state doublet 3d92D. In addition, 3 of 17 even levels and 10 of 43 odd levels have been changed. The new energy-level scheme results in the classification of 329 spectral lines as compared with 200 lines in the previous report.
