Abstract
Lifetime measurements and empirical branching ratio estimates for the 6p7s P-3(0) and P-3(1) levels in Bi II are reported, together with sup porting theoretical calculations. These results are combined to yield absorption oscillator strengths between these levels and those of the 6p(2) ground configuration. The results are discussed in the context o f spectroscopic data obtained from orbiting telescopes.
