Lifetimes of the 2{ital p}{sup 5}3{ital s} {sup 1}{ital P}{sub 1} and {sup 3}{ital P}{sub 1} levels in SVII and ClVIII have been measured using the beam-foil technique. The results are 17.4{plus minus}0.5 (13{plus minus}1) and 52{plus minus}2 (27{plus minus}1) ps for SVII (ClVIII). Many theoretical results, obtained by a variety of methods, are available for these lifetimes. A summary of the theoretical lifetimes reveals a significant scatter of the results, and none of the calculations agrees with all the present experimental data.
