We present a lifetime measurements of the 6s level of rubidium. We use a time-correlated single-photon counting technique on two different samples of rubidium atoms. A vapor cell with variable rubidium density and a sample of atoms confined…
We report on the lifetime measurement of the $6\,^1\Sigma_g^+ (7,31)$ state of Na$_2$ molecules, produced in a heat-pipe oven, using a time-resolved spectroscopic technique. The $6\,^1\Sigma_g^+ (7,31)$ level was populated by two-step…
We report lifetime measurements of the metastable $6\mathrm{d}\, ^{2}\mathrm{D}_{5/2}$ and $6\mathrm{d}\, ^{2}\mathrm{D}_{3/2}$ states of Ra$^+$. The measured lifetimes, $\tau_{5} = $ 303.8(1.5) ms and $\tau_{3} = $ 642(9) ms, are important…
Recent radiative lifetime measurements accurate to +/- 5% (Stockett et al. 2007, J. Phys. B 40, 4529) using laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) on 8 even-parity and 62 odd-parity levels of Er II have been combined with new branching fractions…
