Revised Lifetimes of Energy Levels in Neutral Iron

C H Corliss et al. J Res Natl Bur Stand A Phys Chem. 1976 Sep-Dec.

Abstract

Mean radiative lifetimes for 408 energy levels of neutral iron are revised from our 1967 paper on the basis of comparison with 81 subsequently measured lifetimes. The standard deviation of the ratio of the revised values to the reference lifetimes is 30 percent.

Keywords: Atomic spectra; Fe I; energy levels; iron; iron lifetimes; lifetimes in Fe I.
