Lifetime measurements have been carried out for some low lying (n =
2) levels in the four-electron ions Cl XIV and S XIII using the
beam-foil technique. Accurate oscillator strengths for the transition have been determined by the inclusion of
prominent cascades in the analysis. Lifetimes of the levels of the
multiplet have also been measured for both ions. The
results are compared with theoretical predictions and earlier
measurements.
