Abstract
The 2s2 1S0 — 2s2p3P°1 intercombination transition in Be-like Xe50+ has been observed and the intensity decay with time has been measured using a foil-excited fast ion beam. The transition wavelength value is found to be λ = (9.81±0.05) nm and the upper level lifetime to be τ = (0.47±0.05) ns. Both values agree with recent theoretical predictions.
