Experimental transition probabilities in N III, N IV and N V spectra

Abstract:

We have obtained transition probabilities (Einstein's A values) of thirteen transitions in doubly (N III), six in triply (N IV) and two in four times (N V) ionized nitrogen spectra belonging to the 3s-3p and 3p-3d transitions using a relative line intensity ratio (RLIR) technique. The linear low-pressure pulsed arc was used as an optically thin plasma source operated at 51 400 K electron temperature and 2.2×10²³ m^-3 electron density in nitrogen plasma. Our A values are compared to recent theoretical and experimental data.
