Abstract
Lifetime measurements are reported for several levels in the 2s2p3p, 2 s2p3d, 2s2p(2), 2p(3) configurations of boronlike N III. Beam-foil exc itation methods were used with cascade repopulation analyzed by the co rrelated decay curve ANDC technique. A small but significant J-depende nce in the lifetimes of the 3d(4)F levels was observed. The experiment al lifetimes for the levels in the 2s2p(2) and 2p(3) were found to be in good agreement with recent theoretical results.
