REVISED AND EXTENDED ANALYSIS OF THE 5S(2)5P(3), 5S(5)P(4), 5S(2)5P(2)5D AND 5S(2)5P(2)6S CONFIGURATIONS OF TREBLY IONIZED XENON (XE-IV)

The spectrum of xenon was photographed in the 350 angstrom-2000 angstrom region on a 3-m normal incidence spectrograph. The source used was a modified triggered spark. Of 31 previously reported levels of the 5s5p4, 5s(2)5p(2)5d and 5s(2)5p(2)6s configurations of Xe IV, two were rejected, J-values of two levels were altered and LS-designations of three levels were revised. Fourteen additional levels have been established. Configuration interaction calculations for the 5s5p4, 5s(2)5p(2)5d, 5s(2)5p(2)6s and 5s(2)5p(2)6d configurations were carried out to interpret the observed spectrum. 114 lines are now classified in this spectrum, of which 34 are new identifications.
