COULOMB APPROXIMATION OSCILLATOR STRENGTHS OF SPECTRAL LINES FROM LIGHT AND MEDIUM ELEMENTS

Abstract

The report contains a comprehensive table of absorption oscillator strengths for many spectral lines from various ionization stages of most elements between, and including, Li and Ca which have been calculated with the Coulomb approximation for the radial matrix elements, assuming LS-coupling. An average accuracy of 30 percent is suggested for visible lines emitted from neutral atoms. For ultraviolet lines, larger errors must be expected, with the accuracy improving as the degree of ionization increases. Absorption oscillator strengths for the lines in many of the strongest multiplets of the various spectra have also been included in the table. The lines and multiplets are arranged in multiplet tables for visible and ultraviolet lines.
