Extensions to the spark spectra of zinc. I. Zinc II and zinc IV

Abstract
The spectrum of Zn II has been extended to complete the configuration 3d94s(3D)4p′ and 3d94s(1D)4p″. The configurations 3d109f, 3d1010f, and 3d94s(3D)5s′ have been added and a number of levels of the configurations 3d94s(3D)4d′, 3d94s(1D)4d″, and 3d94s(3D)6s′ have been tentatively established. Our list of Zn II lines contains 363 classified lines.Improved wavelength measurements have necessitated a revision of our earlier report on the spectrum of Zn IV. All the energy levels have been shifted slightly with respect to the ground state doublet 3d92D. In addition, 3 of 17 even levels and 10 of 43 odd levels have been changed. The new energy-level scheme results in the classification of 329 spectral lines as compared with 200 lines in the previous report.
