The absolute transition probabilities between the 3p⁵4s and 3p⁵4p configurations of neutral argon have been measured in a three part experiment.
In the first experiment, a technique of absorption spectroscopy was used to obtain relative transition probabilities for spectral lines with a common lower level.
Secondly, relative transition probabilities were obtained for spectral lines with a common upper level by measuring the relative intensities of suitable pairs of lines in an emission experiment.
In the third experiment, the relative values were converted to absolute transition probabilities by
obtaining the lifetime of the P₁-S2 transition at ʎ7503Å.
The experimental techniques used in this experiment were developed by Robinson (1966) and van Andel (1966). / Science, Faculty of / Physics and Astronomy, Department of / Graduate
