description

Lande gJ factors and lifetimes for the levels in the even-parity Rydberg series 6pnp (n = 9-16) and 6pnf (n = 6-12) as well as for the levels from perturbing configurations of neutral lead have been measured using laser-induced fluorescence and Zeeman quantum-beat techniques. Two-step excitation was performed in a thermal atomic lead beam. Strong perturbations in the Rydberg series are manifested both in the gJ factor and lifetime data.
