A direct lifetime measurement for a resonance transition in argon

Creator:

Dickerson, George Fielden

Abstract:

The 4s³P₁ state of argon decays radiatively by a resonance transition to the 3p⁶¹S₀ ground state; the wavelength of this radiation is 1067A. By direct observation of the decay of the 1067A radiation from excited argon gas, a value of 0.93±0.06 x 10⁻⁵ seconds has been obtained for the natural...
