Abstract
We have used photographic spectroscopy of a beam-foil source to measur e the vacuum ultraviolet 1s2s S-3(1)-1s2p P-3(2,0) transition waveleng ths in helium-like sulphur. The results are 673.41 +/- 0.02 Angstrom a nd 756.35 +/- 0.04 Angstrom, respectively. These measurements, togethe r with our earlier measurements in helium-like silicon and phosphorus, are compared with other precision measurements for Z = 14 to 18, and with recent relativistic and quantum electrodynamic calculations.
