High resolution absorption cross-sections and band oscillator strengths of the Schumann-Runge absorption bands of isotopic oxygen, (O-18)2, at 79 K

Cross-sections of (O-18)2 at 79 K have been obtained from photoabsorption measurements at various pressures throughout the wavelength region 177.8-197.8 nm with a 6.65 m photoelectric scanning spectrometer equipped with a 2400 lines/mm grating and having an instrumental width (FWHM) of 0.0013 nm. The measured absorption cross-sections of the Schumann-Runge bands (14,0) through (2,0) are, with the exception of the (12,0) band, independent of the instrumental width. The measured cross-sections are presented graphically here and are available at wavenumber intervals of about 0.1/cm as numerical compilations stored on magnetic tape. Band oscillator strengths of those bands have been determined by direct numerical integration of the measured absolute cross-sections and are in excellent agreement with these theoretically calculated values.

Oscillator strengths and collision strengths for some ions of oxygen and sulphur

Collision strengths for electron impact excitation of the O II, O III, S II and S III for some transitions in the ultraviolet of the type ns(sup 2) np(sup q) yields ns np(sup q +1), ns(sup 2) np(sup q) yields ns(sup 2) np(sup q-1) (n+1)s and 3s2 3p(sup q) yields 352 3p(sup q -1) 3d are calculated in a close coupling approximation for an energy rate up to one million K. Configuration interaction target wave functions which give oscillator strengths accurate to 10% for O II and O III, and 20-30% for S II and S III, are used in the expansion. Accurate knowledge of the electron impact excitation cross sections is particularly significant for a proper interpretation of the combined ultraviolet observations of the Voyager UVS and IUE results on properties of the Io plasma torus.

Radiative lifetimes and band oscillator strengths for metal oxides. II - SiO E 1 Sigma /+/-X 1 Sigma /+/

Use of an electron-beam phase-shift apparatus to obtain the radiative lifetimes for vibrational levels of the SiO E 1 Sigma (+) state. It is found that the radiative lifetimes for the vibrational transitions of the E-X band are independent of the vibrational upper state. The measured phase shifts yield cascade free lifetimes of 10.5 plus or minus 1.1 nsec for v' from 1 to 7. Spectroscopic data from Elander and Lagerqvist (1971) were used to calculate potential curves by the Klein-Dunham procedure, and Franck-Condon factors and r-centroids for the transition were computed.

Oscillator strengths for ionized iron and manganese

The observed strengths of interstellar absorption lines of Fe II and Mn II in the spectra of alpha Vir, beta Cen, pi Sco, and zeta Oph along with laboratory f values of some of these lines between 2343 and 2606 A have been used to determine curves of growth for these ions and the f-values of ten lines of Fe II and three lines of Mn II between 1055 and 1261 A. The Fe and Mn abundances are derived.
