The spectrum of Bi VI in a wavelength region of 177-431 Angstrom was studie
d. The transitions from the levels of the interacting configurations 5d(8)6
s6p + 5d(9)7p + 5d(9)5f + 5d(9)6f to the levels of the 5d(10) and 5d(9)6s c
onfigurations were analyzed. 174 spectral lines were identified, and 79 new
levels of high-lying odd configurations of Bi VI were found. (C) 2000 MAIK
