Abstract

Beam-foil spectrum of fluorine was recorded in the wavelength region of 2000–4500 Å using F+ ion beams of energies ranging from 216 to 296 KeV. Some of the spectral lines of fluorine observed during the present investigation are hitherto unknown. Mean lifetimes of a few of the excited levels of F II and F III are reported for the first time.
