Measurements and predictions of the 6s6p{sup 1,3}P{sub 1} lifetimes in the Hg isoelectronic sequence

Experimental and theoretical values for the lifetimes of the 6s6p{sup 1}P{sub 1} and {sup 3}P{sub 1} levels in the Hg isoelectronic sequence are examined in the context of a data-based isoelectronic systematization. New beam-foil measurements for lifetimes in Pb III and Bi IV are reported and includ...

Description
Summary:Experimental and theoretical values for the lifetimes of the 6s6p{sup 1}P{sub 1} and {sup 3}P{sub 1} levels in the Hg isoelectronic sequence are examined in the context of a data-based isoelectronic systematization. New beam-foil measurements for lifetimes in Pb III and Bi IV are reported and included in a critical evaluation of the available database. These results are combined with ab initio theoretical calculations and linearizing parametrizations to make predictive extrapolations for ions with 84{
