Eh. Pinnington et al., BEAM-LASER MEASUREMENTS AND RELATIVISTIC HARTREE-FOCK-CALCULATIONS OFTHE LIFETIMES OF THE 3D(9)4P-LEVELS IN CU-II, Canadian journal of physics, 75(1), 1997, pp. 1-9
We report the first lifetime measurements for Cu II using laser excita
tion of a fast beam. We present results for 10 levels belonging to the
3a(9)4p configuration. We also report the lifetimes we have calculate
d for these levels using Cowan's relativistic Hartree-Fock method. We
compare our results with previous measurements and calculations.
