A number of spectrum lines arising from magnetic dipole transitions in the 3s/sup 2/3p/sup 5/, 3s/sup 2/3p/sup 4/, 3s/sup 2/3p/sup 3/, 3s/sup 2/3p/sup 2/, 3s/sup 2/3p, and 3s3p electron configurations in elements 29 less than or equal to z less than or equal to 42 have been identified. The lines were observed in the PLT tokamak discharges into which the appropriate elements were introduced by means of laser blowoff. The identifications are based on time- and space-dependence of the observed emissivities, and the systematic consistency of the observed wavelengths with isoelectronic extrapolations based on known lower-z elements.
