One-electron spectrum of Xe VIII

Journal Article · · J. Opt. Soc. Am.; (United States)
The spectrum of Xe VIII has been observed in a theta-pinch discharge. New line identifications were made that determine the energies of the 6s, 7s, 6p, and 5f terms relative to the 5s /sup 2/S ground state and confirm the previously known 5p and 5d terms. An independent system of levels derived from the observed 4f-ng (n = 5,6) transitions was found. Its position relative to the ground state is obtained from a predicted value for the 5g effective quantum number n*. From the ns series (n=5--7) a value for the ionization enegy of 105.91 +- 0.05 eV was derived.
