Abstract

Lifetimes of some (n = 4, 5, 6, 7) levels of neutral argon have been measured by high frequency deflection technique with a delayed coincidence single photon counting arrangement. The measurements have been performed under conditions where pressure dependent effects are negligible. Lifetimes of some of the levels have been measured for the first time. The results have been compared with other experimental and theoretical values.
