Analysis of the spectrum of four-times-ionized lutetium (Lu V)

Journal Article · · J. Opt. Soc. Am.; (United States)
Spectra of Lu obtained with a sliding spark discharge at peak currents of 50--500 A were recorded with a 10.7 m normal incidence spectrograph in the range of 500--2100 A. Intercomparison of spectra revealed a distinct separation of Lu III, IV, and V, the first two of which have already been anlayzed. The present work contains an interpretation of Lu V in which 419 lines are classified as transitions among 136 energy levels of the 4f/sup 13/, 4f/sup 12/5d, 4f/sup 12/6s, and 4f/sup 12/6p configurations. Calculated energy levels and eigenvectors, obtained with fitted values for the radial integrals, are given.
