Abstract
The method of determining absolute oscillator strengths from arc spectra of diluted copper alloys has been described. The scale has been averaged from various absolute measurements and calculations that are available. Absolute values are tabulated for certain lines in the spectra of Al, Si, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga, Ag, Sn, Pb, and Bi. A relation between oscillator strength and excitation potential has been found as in earlier work, but this is now shown to be due mainly to the weakness of those transitions for which the moving electron is equivalent in the lower level. Some empirical rules for estimating oscillator strengths in complex spectra are given.
