P. Villoresi et al., ABSORPTION-SPECTRA AND OSCILLATOR STRENGTH RATIO MEASUREMENTS FOR DELTA-N=1 TRANSITIONS FROM EXCITED-LEVELS OF BE-I AND BE-II, Journal of quantitative spectroscopy & radiative transfer, 57(6), 1997, pp. 847-857
Absorption spectra of Be I and Be II have been observed in the visible
spectral range with a new experimental technique. A laser-produced Be
plasma acts as the absorbing medium while a dye laser is used for bac
klighting the Be plasma. Transitions between excited levels have been
observed in absorption, and relative oscillator strength ratios of the
Be II lines from levels n = 3 to n = 4 have been measured. (C) 1997 E
