摘要
The transition probability of the 5577 Å (1S0 - 1D2) line of oxygen has been ob- tained absolutely by simultaneous measurement of the number density of O(1S0) atoms in an oxygen-helium discharge and the intensity of the emitted 5577 Å line. The experimental technique is described in detail. The value obtained for A-5577 of 1.0 sec-1 is in agreement with theoretical predictions though large systematic and other errors result in a possible inaccuracy of a factor of two. © 1969.
