We have measured the vacuum-ultraviolet 1[ital s]2[ital s] [sup 3][ital S][sub 1]--1[ital s]2[ital p] [sup 3][ital P][sub 2,0] transition wavelengths in heliumlike neon by photographic spectroscopy of a recoil-ion source. The results are 1248.10[plus minus]0.01 and 1277.74[plus minus]0.04 A, respectively, and are a sensitive test of present relativistic and quantum-electrodynamic calculations. Earlier photographic data have been reanalyzed for comparison with these results.
