The relative intensities of 694 emission lines of Ti II between 187 and 602
nm from 89 levels have been measured by high-resolution Fourier transform
spectrometry, using a hollow cathode lamp as light source. The spectral res
ponse function of the instrument was determined with calibrated tungsten ha
logen and deuterium lamps. Errors due to self-absorption in strong lines we
re eliminated by running the lamp at different currents. At least 95% of th
e predicted transition intensity has been measured for 83 of these levels,
allowing reliable branching fractions to be found. The branching fractions
have been combined with 39 measured and 44 computed lifetimes to give absol
ute transition probabilities for 624 lines. These agree well with the most
recent values for 55 of the lines obtained in a similar way from seven of t
he measured lifetimes.
