Radiative Lifetimes of N ii Using N2+ and N+ Beams Incident on a Helium Gaseous Target

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Mean radiative lifetimes have been measured for several levels of singly ionized nitrogen, using the ion-beam technique with an N2+ beam. The lifetimes in nanoseconds are given in parentheses following the state: 3p 1D2 (8.8±0.3), 4f 3G (7.3±0.4), 3d 3F°2,3 (8.6±0.6), 3d 3F°4 (11.0±1.1), 3p 3D (16.5±0.6). In each case, the uncertainty is the standard deviation from the mean of several independent values. In addition, the lifetime of the combined 3d 3F2,3.4 levels was measured with both N+ and N2+ beams, yielding a value of 9.9±1.0 ns. Systematic errors associated with the method make each of the above lifetimes uncertain by amounts ranging from 10% to 25%.
